Fettuccine with chicken in a tomato and creamy almond sauce
One of the first dishes my boyfriend made for me was this Red – White Pasta. Almonds in the pasta, woow, it was surprising for me. But with the first taste I was in heaven. It was so delicious. Later on we made it together for my family, our friends, etc. It is always a great success, you can not miss it.
These two sauces perfectly complement each other. Flavorful tomato sauce and simple, creamy almond sauce. Prepared chicken is very tender.
