Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 3 cloves Minced garlic
- 2 cups Heavy cream
- 0.75 cup Blue cheese (crumbled)
- 0.5 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (chopped, optional)
- 12 ounces Cooked fettuccine pasta
Instructions
Season the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper on both sides.
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook for 6-8 minutes per side, or until fully cooked and golden brown. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and add the butter. Once melted, add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes, until fragrant.
Pour in the heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally.
Gradually stir in the blue cheese and Parmesan cheese, allowing them to melt into the sauce. Stir until the sauce is smooth and creamy. Adjust salt and pepper to taste.
Slice the cooked chicken breasts into thin strips.
Add the cooked fettuccine to the skillet and toss well to coat the pasta evenly with the sauce.
Divide the sauced pasta among four plates, and top each with sliced chicken.
Garnish with chopped parsley, if desired, and serve immediately.
