Perfect Chicken Alfredo

Ingredients:

• 8 oz fettuccine pasta
• 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts, thinly sliced
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• Salt and black pepper to taste
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter
• Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Cooking Steps:

Step 1: Cook the fettuccine pasta according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.

Step 2: In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Season the sliced chicken with salt and black pepper, then cook until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

Step 3: In the same skillet, add minced garlic and cook for about 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 4: Lower the heat to medium and add butter to the skillet. Once melted, pour in the heavy cream and bring to a simmer.

Step 5: Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese, continuously stirring until the cheese is melted and the sauce is smooth.

Step 6: Add the cooked chicken to the skillet, tossing to coat the chicken in the Alfredo sauce.

Step 7: Return the drained fettuccine pasta to the skillet, tossing everything together until well coated in the sauce.

Step 8: Season with additional salt and black pepper if needed. Allow the pasta to heat through.

Step 9: Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
