Method
Pasta Preparation
- 1
Cook the Fettuccine
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the fettuccine pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente, typically about 8-10 minutes. Once cooked, drain and set aside.
Chicken Preparation
- 2
Prepare the Chicken
Season the boneless, skinless chicken breasts with salt and black pepper on both sides. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the chicken breasts and 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, then slice into strips.
Alfredo Sauce Preparation
- 3
Make the Alfredo Sauce
In the same skillet used for the chicken, reduce the heat to medium and add the butter. Once melted, add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Pour in the heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer. Stir in the Parmesan cheese, salt, and black pepper, and cook until the cheese has melted and the sauce is smooth, about 3-5 minutes.

Combine Everything
Add the cooked fettuccine to the Alfredo sauce and toss until the pasta is well coated. Add the sliced chicken on top and mix gently. Garnish with chopped parsley before serving.
