Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 teaspoons Garlic, minced
- 2 cups Heavy cream
- 1 stick Unsalted butter
- 1 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 16 ounces Fettuccine pasta
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Place the chicken breasts in the bottom of the crock pot.
Add the minced garlic, heavy cream, butter, salt, and black pepper to the crock pot.
Cover the crock pot with the lid and cook on low heat for 4 hours or until the chicken is cooked through and tender.
Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the crock pot and shred it into bite-sized pieces using two forks. Return the shredded chicken to the crock pot.
Stir the grated Parmesan cheese into the sauce in the crock pot. Mix well to combine and allow the cheese to melt completely.
While the sauce is finishing, cook the fettuccine pasta in a large pot of salted boiling water according to the package instructions. Drain well.
Add the cooked fettuccine to the crock pot and gently toss to coat the pasta with the creamy Alfredo sauce.
Serve the Chicken Alfredo warm, garnished with fresh parsley if desired.
