Ingredients
- fetuccine pasta
- boneless chicken
- salt and black pepper
- olive oil
- garlic
- heavy cream
- parmesan cheese
- unsalted butter
- fresh parsley
Instructions
- In a large pot of salted boiling water, cook the fettuccine pasta according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
- Season the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper on both sides. In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook until golden brown on both sides and cooked through, about 6-7 minutes per side. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Lower the heat and add the heavy cream and unsalted butter. Stir gently until the butter melts and the cream is heated through.
- Gradually add the grated Parmesan cheese to the cream mixture. Use a whisk to combine until the cheese is fully melted and the sauce is smooth and creamy.
- Slice the cooked chicken breasts into thin strips.
- Return the sliced chicken to the skillet with the Alfredo sauce. Stir gently to coat the chicken with the creamy sauce.
- Add the cooked fettuccine pasta to the skillet with the chicken and sauce. Toss everything together to evenly distribute the sauce.
- Divide the Chicken Alfredo among serving plates. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley for a burst of color and flavor.
- Serve this luscious Chicken Alfredo immediately and savor each bite of tender chicken and velvety sauce intertwined with perfectly cooked pasta.

Notes
- For extra flavor, marinate the chicken in your favorite herbs and spices before cooking.
- To reduce the richness, you can use half-and-half instead of heavy cream, but the sauce won't be as thick.
- Add sautéed mushrooms, steamed broccoli, or sun-dried tomatoes for additional layers of flavor and texture.
