Spicy Honey Chicken With Pasta Alfredo

This is two recipes that I though would be good together and they were. So this will be a long post but you must try this!

Spicy Honey Chicken:

2 lb chicken

2 tsp vegetable oil

Rub:

2 tsp granulated garlic

2 tsp chili powder

1/2 tsp onion powder

1/2 tsp corriander

1 tsp salt

1 tsp cumin

1/2 tsp chipotle chili powder (its in the spices isle. You just need to look hard for it.)

Glaze:

1/2 cup honey

1 Tbsp cider vinegar

Combine rub spices in a bowl and mix well. Pat chicken dry, drizzle oil over chicken and rub in with hands to lightly coat all chicken. Toss with spice run to coat well. Grill chicken 3-5 min until cooked through. While chicken is cooking warm honey in microwave for about 15 seconds so its not to thick. Mix in vinegar and combine well. Reserve 2T for later. Take the rest and brush on chicken in final moments of grilling.

Alfredo Sauce:

2 Tbsp garlic

2 Tbsp olive oil

1 Tbsp crushed red pepper

1 1/2 qt heavy whipping cream

2 cups parmesan cheese (if using shredded do 1 1/2 cups)

3 oz cream cheese

Saute garlic in oil. Add crushed red pepper and saute on med-low for 5 min. Turn heat up and stir in heavy cream and cream cheese. Melt cream cheese. Add in parmesan cheese and melt. Heat through and serve over your favorite pasta.

Side note: this recipe doesn't call for salt but definitely needs it so add salt and pepper to taste.
