Serve it with a crisp glass of wine and a sprinkle of extra Parmesan for that authentic restaurant touch.
Season the chicken breasts with 1 teaspoon of salt and 1 teaspoon of black pepper.
Dredge the chicken in flour, shaking off any excess.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook for 4-5 minutes per side 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.
Deglaze the pan by pouring in the white wine, scraping the bottom of the skillet to loosen any browned bits. Let the wine simmer for 2-3 minutes until reduced slightly.
Add the chicken broth and heavy cream to the skillet. Stir well and bring the sauce to a gentle simmer.
Meanwhile, cook the pasta in a large pot of salted boiling water according to package instructions. Reserve 1/2 cup of pasta water before draining.
Slice the cooked chicken breasts into strips and return them to the skillet with the sauce. Simmer for 2-3 minutes to meld flavors.
Toss the cooked pasta with the sauce and chicken, adding a splash of reserved pasta water if the sauce is too thick.
Garnish the dish with fresh parsley and grated Parmesan cheese. Serve immediately and enjoy your homemade Olive Garden-inspired Chicken Vino Bianco!
