Pasta Preparation

Cook the Fettuccine
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the fettuccine pasta and cook according to the package instructions until al dente, usually about 8-10 minutes. Drain and set aside.
Chicken Preparation

Grill the Chicken
While the pasta is cooking, heat olive oil in a grill pan over medium-high heat. Season the chicken breasts with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder on both sides. Place the chicken in the hot grill pan and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Remove from the pan and let rest for a few minutes before slicing.

Make the Alfredo Sauce
In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Add minced garlic cloves and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Pour in the heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer. Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese, salt, and black pepper. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly, stirring constantly.
