- 1 Tablespoon minced garlic
- 1 Tablespoon crushed red pepper flakes

- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 3 Tablespoons olive oil
- 2 cups alfredo sauce, (I just used a jar of store bought)
- 2 cups marinara sauce, (I just used a jar of store bought)

Equipment
Instructions
- In a large skillet on medium-high heat, heat two tablespoons olive oil. Saute garlic, red pepper flakes, and coarse black pepper for 2-3 minutes.
- Add in thin strips of chicken breast, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and cook until chicken is cooked through. This should only take a few minutes because the chicken is cut thin.
- Add in marinara sauce and stir. Add in Alfredo sauce and stir. Let the sauces simmer for about 10 minutes.
- To the sauce, add two tablespoons butter and 1/2 cup peas. Stir until the butter melts.
- Combine the sauce mixture with cooked pasta. Garnish with fresh Parmesan cheese, and a pinch or two of red pepper flake.
Notes
- If you want to take the spicy level down, I recommend cutting back (or completely cutting out) the red pepper flakes completely.
