03 Method

Step 1

For the chicken: Pat chicken dry. Season with salt and pepper. In a large resealable bag, marinate the chicken in olive oil, garlic and lemon juice for 4 to 18 hours.
Step 2

Preheat a grill to high. Clean grate.
Step 3

Make the sauce: Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and lemon zest and cook until the garlic is slightly soft, about 1 minute.
Step 4

Add in the flour and cook, stirring with a wooden spoon, 1 minute. Whisk in the milk and salt and cook, whisking constantly, until just thickened, about 3 minutes.
Step 5

Add the neufchatel and parmesan cheese; whisk until melted, about 1 minute. Stir in the chopped parsley.
Step 6

Back at the grill: Turn heat down to medium, and place chicken on the grate. Cook, covered about 7 minutes. Flip and cook an additional 5. Check to make sure your chicken is cooked through.
Step 7

Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the lemon pasta and cook until al dente, according to manufacturer's instructions. Reserve 1 cup pasta cooking water, then drain the pasta and return to the pot.
Step 8

Add the sauce and 1/2 cup the reserved cooking water to the pasta and gently toss to combine, adding more cooking water as needed to loosen. Season with salt and pepper.
Step 9

Serve with fresh steamed broccoli and top with additional parmesan cheese.
