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

  1. 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.
  2. Cook the garlic: In the same pot, add minced garlic and sauté for 1–2 minutes until fragrant.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. Garnish and serve: Sprinkle with fresh parsley for a pop of color and serve hot.
