Cooking the Pasta

  1. 1

    Boil Water

    In a large pot, bring water to a boil and add 1 teaspoon of salt.

  2. 2

    Cook Pasta

    Add the fettuccine pasta to the boiling water and cook according to package instructions until al dente, usually around 8-10 minutes.

  3. 3

    Drain Pasta

    Once cooked, drain the pasta and set aside, reserving a small cup of pasta water.

Grilling the Chicken

  1. 4

    Season Chicken

    Season the chicken breasts with 1 teaspoon of salt and 1 teaspoon of black pepper.

  2. 5

    Heat Oil

    In a skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat.

  3. 6

    Cook Chicken

    Add the chicken breasts to the skillet and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked and internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).

  4. 7

    Slice Chicken

    Remove the chicken from the skillet and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing it into strips.

Making the Alfredo Sauce
