Note: Make sure you add salt to your pasta water. In a large saute pan, over medium heat, add the olive oil and cayenne pepper. Swirl to combine. Cook the chicken in the spicey oil until fully cooked, about 8 minutes but times may vary. Once the chicken is fully cooked, reduce the heat to medium-low and add the butter and garlic to the pan.
Chicken Diavolo Pasta is quite possibly my favorite pasta dish! Why is it called the devil’s chicken pasta you might ask. Diavolo, the Italian word for “devil,” speaks to the spiciness or “fire” in this dish. It also means that it is sinfully delicious!
