Lemon-Chicken Alfredo

Based heavily on a recipe from Cooks.com

http://www.cooks.com/rec/doc/0,1739,155191-230193,00.html

1/4 cup butter

4 boneless, skinless chicken halves cut into bite-size pieces

1/2 cup dried porcini pieces, washed well and soaked in hot water. reserve liquid.

3 tbs fresh rosemary, minced

grated zest of 1 lemon

1/2 cup dry white wine or dry vermouth

juice of 1 lemon

1 cup cream (I used fat free half and half)

2 eggs, beaten

1/2 cup grated Parmesan or Romano cheese

1 pound pasta

Melt butter in large skillet over medium heat; add chicken. Sauté, stirring often, until chicken is starting to brown and shows no traces of pink. Remove chicken to ovenproof serving dish and keep warm in a slow oven. Add wine, lemon juice and soaking liquid from the porcinis to the skillet. Reduce liquid over high heat until it thickens (about 1/4 cup).

Boil pasta, drain and return to pot over medium heat. Stir eggs into the cream. Gradually pour in cream-egg mixture, stirring constantly, until the liquid starts to set. Add cheese and continue to cook, stirring constantly for about 30 additional seconds.

Add chicken and mix well.

Serves 4 generously.

Awwwwwww Ang...

I just had the opportunity to get a Labradoodle from my stepdaughter. A breeder came into animal control with three black females and one cream male and was giving them away FREE. She wasn't sure if they were purebred standard poodles or labradoodles, so she couldn't sell them. I wanted a little girl so bad, but the Petmeister vetoed the idea. We had four dogs but recently lost two of them. Now we have a Golden Retriever and a half Great Pyrenese/half hound dog, but she looks like a purebred Pyrenese. I love the Pyrenese breed. She is so gentle and sweet. Your little puppy is adorable. What did you name her? How old is she? Awwwwwwww, I just love puppies, you lucky duck.

 
Her name is Hope and her mother was an 8 lb poodle, dad is 70 lb Lab. I hope she takes after mom

she is so good natured and really smart. 14 weeks old this week. Had her last shots today and vet was surprised that she would "sit" before getting her treat. It's been soooooo long since either of us has had a dog, let alone training a puppy. Lots of work!! She is quiet at night, we just need to get up and let her out at least once during the night. yawn.

 
and, anything and everything is "food" to her. she puts every twig or fuzzball or weed or paper etc

into her mouth. Gee, I sure hope she grows out of that.

 
Am I the only one who is trying to imagine

what that courtship must've been like? A 70 lb lab and an 8 lb poodle? Oh my mind is going to the gutter quickly! ;o) Cute puppy!!

 
thanks , dawn. i pondered about 10 minutes and gave up....

trying to word the same thought with your delicacy.

it reminds me of our female bull mastiff 40 years ago who was courted (unsuccessfully) by a neighborhood chijuajua that got into our fenced yard by crawling under the gate.
