Cook the Pasta

  1. 1

    Boil Water

    In a large pot, bring 4 cups of salted water to a boil.

  2. 2

    Cook Fettuccine

    Add the fettuccine pasta to the boiling water and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

  1. 3

    Season Chicken

    Season the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper on both sides.

  2. 4

    Cook Chicken

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from skillet and let rest for a few minutes before slicing.

    In the same skillet used for the chicken, melt the butter over medium heat.
