Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 pound (450g) boneless, skinless chicken breast, cubed
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 3 cups chicken broth
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 12 ounces (340g) fettuccine pasta
- 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
- Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
Preparation Steps
- Sauté the chicken: In a large pot or deep skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add cubed chicken and season with salt and pepper. Cook for 5–7 minutes until browned and cooked through. Remove and set aside.
- Cook the garlic: In the same pot, add minced garlic and sauté for 1–2 minutes until fragrant.
- Add liquids and pasta: Pour in the chicken broth and heavy cream, then bring to a simmer. Add the fettuccine, making sure it’s fully submerged. Reduce heat to medium and cook for 10–12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the pasta is tender and the sauce thickens.
- Incorporate chicken and cheese: Return the cooked chicken to the pot. Stir in Parmesan cheese until melted and creamy. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.
