Cooking Instructions
Cook the Pasta
In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook the fettuccine pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Prepare the Chicken
Season the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper. In a large skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add the chicken and cook until golden brown and cooked through, about 6-7 minutes per side. Once cooked, remove from skillet and slice.
Make the Alfredo Sauce
In the same skillet, melt the remaining 2 tablespoons of 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. Stir in the Parmesan cheese until melted and smooth. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
Combine Pasta and Sauce
Add the cooked fettuccine to the sauce, tossing to coat the pasta evenly. If the sauce is too thick, add a splash of pasta water to reach desired consistency.
Serve
Top the creamy fettuccine Alfredo with sliced chicken and garnish with chopped parsley. Serve immediately.
