Instructions
1. Prepare the Truffle Pesto Roasted Potatoes
Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
In a bowl, toss potato cubes with olive oil, truffle pesto, salt, and pepper.
Spread potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet and roast for 20–25 minutes, or until golden brown and tender, flipping halfway through.
2. Prepare the Crispy Hot Honey Garlic Chicken
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a shallow dish, beat the egg. In another shallow dish, combine panko breadcrumbs, salt, and pepper.
Dip each chicken bite in the egg, then dredge in the panko mixture.
Heat olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Sear the chicken for 2-3 minutes per side until golden.
Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until cooked through.
While the chicken bakes, whisk together hot honey, soy sauce, and minced garlic in a small bowl. Toss the baked chicken with this glaze.
3. Cook the Pasta
Cook fettuccine according to package instructions until al dente.
Reserve ½ cup pasta water, then drain.
4. Make the Alfredo Sauce with Lemon & Garlic
While the chicken and potatoes cook, melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
Sauté garlic until fragrant.
Pour in heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer.
Stir in grated Parmesan cheese and lemon zest until melted and smooth. Season with salt and pepper.
Add cooked fettuccine to the sauce, tossing gently. Add reserved pasta water if needed to reach desired consistency.
5. Prepare the Creamy Hot Honey Garlic Drizzle
In a small bowl, whisk together hot honey, heavy cream, finely minced garlic, and red pepper flakes (if using).
6. Assemble & Serve
Serve the lemon garlic Alfredo pasta topped with the crispy hot honey garlic chicken bites alongside the truffle pesto roasted potatoes.
Drizzle generously with the creamy hot honey garlic sauce.
