Chicken Spidini


This is a knock-off" of a dish from one of our favorite italian restaurants. The prep time does not include marinating the chicken overnight. Most excellent served with alfredo sauce and artichoke hearts!"!

Steps


Wash chicken and cut each breast into 8 pieces.
Mix olive oil with lemon , fresh diced basil , garlic , red pepper flakes , black pepper and salt.
Reserve 1 / 4 cup of oil mixture.
Marinate chicken in remaining oil mixture in the refrigerator overnight.
--next day-- bring water to a boil for pasta.
Drain the chicken and roll the chunks in a mixture of breadcrumbs , dried basil , oregano and parmesan cheese.
Skewer and put chicken on the grill , turning until done.
Or fry the chicken in olive oil until browned on all sides.
Toss the cooked fettuccine noodles or penne with the reserved oil mixture and serve.
