Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 3 cloves minced garlic
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 1.5 cups grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
- 12 ounces cooked fettuccine pasta
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Season the chicken breasts with half the salt and pepper on both sides.
In a large skillet over medium heat, heat the olive oil. Add the chicken breasts and cook for 6-7 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Reduce the heat to low and pour in the heavy cream. Stir well to combine and let it warm up but not boil.
Gradually add in the grated Parmesan cheese, stirring constantly, until the cheese has melted and the sauce is smooth. Sprinkle in the dried parsley, the remaining salt, and pepper.
Return the cooked chicken to the skillet and spoon the sauce over the chicken. Let the chicken simmer in the sauce for 5 minutes to absorb the flavors.
Add the cooked fettuccine pasta to the skillet and gently toss to coat it in the sauce.
Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley if desired.
