Ingredients

– 8 ounces fettuccine or your pasta of choice
– 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, diced
– 2 tablespoons olive oil

Instructions

Creating Creamy Chicken Garlic Parmesan Pasta is simple when you follow these steps:

1. Cook the Pasta: In a large pot of salted boiling water, cook the fettuccine according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
2. Sauté Chicken: In a large skillet over medium heat, add olive oil. Add the diced chicken, seasoning with salt and pepper. Cook until golden brown and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove chicken from the skillet and set aside.
3. Prepare the Sauce: In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a simmer.
4. Add Cream and Cheese: Lower the heat and stir in the heavy cream. Gradually add the grated Parmesan cheese, stirring continuously until melted and smooth.
5. Combine Everything: Return the chicken to the skillet, followed by the cooked pasta. Toss everything together until well-coated and heated through. Adjust seasoning if needed.

These steps will help you create this incredible dish effortlessly, ensuring each bite is flavorful and satisfying.
