Method
Cooking Instructions
Cook 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. Drain and set aside.
Prepare the Chicken
While the pasta is cooking, season the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and cook the chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until fully cooked. Remove from skillet and let rest before slicing.
Make the Alfredo Sauce
In the same skillet, add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Pour in the heavy cream, bringing it to a gentle simmer. Stir in the Parmesan cheese until melted and smooth. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
Combine Everything
Add the cooked fettuccine to the skillet with the Alfredo sauce and toss until well-coated. Slice the chicken and place it on top of the pasta.
Garnish and Serve
Sprinkle chopped parsley over the dish before serving.
