1 lb dry (or 2 lbs fresh) spinach fettuccine
1 1/4 lb chicken breast, diced
1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro
2 tbsp chopped cilantro reserved for garnish
2 tbsp minced fresh garlic
2 tbsp minced jalapeno pepper (seeds and veins removed)
3 tbsp unsalted butter (reserve tbsp for saute )
1/2 cup chicken stock
1 1/2 cup heavy cream
2 tbsp gold tequila
2 tbsp freshly-squeezed lime juice
3 tbsp soy sauce
1/4 medium red onion, thinly sliced
1/2 medium red bell pepper, thinly sliced
1/2 medium yellow bell pepper thinly sliced
1/2 medium green bell pepper, thinly sliced
Boil salted water to cook pasta; cook until al dente, 8 to 10 minutes for dry pasta, approximately 3 minutes for fresh. Pasta may be cooked ahead of time, rinsed and oiled and then reheated in boiling water.

Meanwhile cook onion and peppers, stirring occasionally, with remaining butter over medium heat. When the vegetables have become limp, add chicken and soy sauce; toss and add reserved tequila/lime paste and cream. Bring the sauce to a boil; boil until chicken is cooked through and sauce is thick (about 3 minutes). Toss with drained spinach fettuccine and reserved cilantro. Serves 4
