Method
Cooking the Fettuccine
- 1
Boil the Pasta
In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the fettuccine pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente, usually about 8-10 minutes. Drain and set aside.
Cooking the Chicken and Broccoli
- 2
Prepare the Chicken
While the pasta is cooking, heat a tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Season the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper, then add them to the skillet. Cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink in the center. Remove from the skillet and let rest for a few minutes before slicing into julienne strips.

Cook the Broccoli
In the same skillet, add the broccoli florets and a splash of water. Cover and steam for about 4-5 minutes until the broccoli is tender but still bright green. Remove from heat.

In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Pour in the heavy cream and bring to a simmer. Reduce heat to low and stir in the Parmesan cheese until melted and the sauce is smooth. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
