I love Creamy Roasted Pepper Sauce and combining it with tender chicken and fettuccine created just a winning combination. I must warn you, it is hard to stop eating this Fettuccine with Roasted Pepper Sauce!!! Hopefully, you'll decide to take that risk and give this dish a try.
I cooked vegetarian version of this recipe many times, but this time around I decided to add some chicken. I think adding shrimp or sausage will work wonderfully too. So feel free to use whatever you like better. Oh, and kielbasa sounds good too!

Made it tonight. Didn’t have fettuccine so broke up some spaghetti. Was absolutely delicious. Going to move this one over to my “Favourites”.

We love this recipe but i also coat the chicken with cajun and italian season. Also, I use chicken broth along with the heavy cream then throw in baby spinach. Oh and I use more garlic.
Delicious thank you for this recipe.

This has become a favorite in our house. But we like things a little spicy so I swapped out half of the peppers that are blended with Calabrian Chili Peppers in Olive oil. I also used some of the oil from the Calabrian Peppers. It gives it a subtle spiciness.
Tania Sheff says
Sounds great, Renee!
