Alright, alright, let’s talk about this here… what’s it called? Chicken teekilly fettuccini? Sounds fancy, but trust me, it ain’t harder than feedin’ chickens, well, maybe a little bit. But we gonna make it easy, like pie.
First off, you gotta get your stuff ready. You know, like when you’re gonna bake a cake? Same kinda deal. You need chicken, of course. Don’t matter if it’s got bones or not, just chop it up into bite-sized pieces. Think chicken nuggets, but bigger. Then you need that… fettuccini stuff. Long noodles, like spaghetti, but flat. You find ’em in the store, near the other noodles.
Now, for the sauce. This is where the “teekilly” part comes in, I reckon. You need some heavy cream, the thick kind, you know, like what you put in coffee if you’re fancy. And some… Parmesan cheese, the grated kind, looks like sawdust but tastes way better. And a little bit of tequila. Don’t go pourin’ in the whole bottle, just a splash, like when you’re waterin’ plants and you accidentally spill a little. And some lime juice, you know, from those green things that look like small lemons.
- Chicken: Cut into bite-sized pieces.
- Fettuccine Noodles: The flat kind.
- Heavy Cream: Thick like.
- Parmesan Cheese: Grated, like sawdust.
- Tequila: Just a splash!
- Lime Juice: From them green lemon things.
Okay, so you got all your stuff? Good. Now, get a big pan, the kind you fry stuff in. Put some oil in it, heat it up. Not too hot, don’t wanna burn nothin’. Toss in the chicken, cook it till it ain’t pink no more. You know, like when you fry chicken for dinner.
Then, you gotta cook the noodles. Boil some water in a pot, throw in the noodles, cook ’em till they’re soft, but not too soft. You don’t want mushy noodles, nobody likes mushy noodles. While the noodles are cookin’, you can start on the sauce. In the same pan you cooked the chicken, pour in the heavy cream, the cheese, the tequila, and the lime juice. Stir it all up, let it simmer for a bit, till it gets all thick and creamy. It should look like melted ice cream, but don’t go eatin’ it yet!
Once the noodles are done, drain ’em and dump ’em into the pan with the sauce. Add the chicken back in, stir it all together, make sure everything’s coated in that creamy, teekilly goodness. And that’s pretty much it. See? I told you it wasn’t hard.
Now, some folks like to add other stuff, you know, like peppers or onions or whatever. If you wanna do that, go ahead. Ain’t gonna hurt nothin’. You can throw ’em in with the chicken while it’s cookin’. I’ve heard of people puttin’ in sun-dried tomatoes too. Fancy stuff, I tell ya. I also heard this dish is somethin’ they serve up in them big city restaurants, imagine that? Me making something fancy like that!
But the basics are just chicken, noodles, cream, cheese, tequila, and lime juice. That’s all you really need. And a big appetite, ’cause this stuff is stick-to-your-ribs good. It’s the kinda food that’ll keep ya goin’ all day long, perfect for a hard day’s work or just sittin’ on the porch watchin’ the world go by. And you know what’s even better? Leftovers, if there are any, are just as good the next day.
So there you have it. Chicken teekilly fettuccini, made easy. Now go on and make it yourself. And don’t forget to clean up your mess after, nobody likes a messy kitchen, ‘specially not me. And one more thing, if you’re gonna give some to the kids, maybe go easy on the tequila. We don’t want little ones gettin’ all tipsy now, do we?
And if you’re feeling extra fancy, you can sprinkle a little more cheese on top before you serve it. Or some chopped cilantro, if you like that kinda thing. It’s all up to you, really. That’s the best part about cookin’, you can do whatever you want. Just have fun with it. And if it don’t turn out perfect the first time, don’t worry about it. Just keep tryin’. You’ll get it eventually. Even a blind squirrel finds a nut once in a while, right? So you can definitely make this here chicken teekilly fettuccini.
I tell you what, this dish is so good, it’ll make you wanna slap yo’ mama! But don’t actually do that, just sayin’. It’s just an expression. You know how us old folks talk sometimes.
