Chicken Scampi

Chicken Scampi - a super simple chicken and pasta recipe that packs rich and buttery decadence, rounded by complex wine flavor, along with hints of bright lemon, and plenty of freshness from the garlic. It's such a satisfying dish!

This recipe was inspired by my Shrimp Scampi and Garlic Butter Chicken Bites, two other must try recipes!

Chicken Scampi Pasta Recipe

Bite size chicken pieces are tossed with herbs and pan seared in a hot skill until gorgeously golden brown. Then they're tossed in a glorious white wine reduction, garlic and butter sauce.

And to make it a hearty main dish it's finished by tossing it all together with tender pasta. Talk about dinner done right! It will leave you craving it again soon.

And I'm sure it's easily better than the infamous Olive Garden's. Homemade can always beat a chain restaurant.

Another option here is to ditch the pasta and serve it with another hearty carb (to pair with that abundance of savory sauce) like crusty bread, potatoes or rice.
