Learn how to make delicious Creamy Garlic Parmesan Chicken Pasta. Easy recipe with step-by-step instructions.
Total Time:45 minutes
Yield:4 servings
Ingredients
12 ounces fettuccine pasta
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces
Salt and pepper, to taste
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup heavy cream
1 cup chicken broth
1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the fettuccine and cook until al dente, about 8-10 minutes. Drain and set aside.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Season the chicken pieces with salt and pepper, then add them to the skillet. Cook until golden brown and cooked through, about 7-8 minutes. Transfer the chicken to a plate and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute. Be careful not to burn the garlic as it can turn bitter.
Pour in the heavy cream and chicken broth, stirring to combine. Bring the mixture to a simmer, allowing it to thicken slightly, about 3-4 minutes.
Reduce the heat to low and stir in the Parmesan cheese and Italian seasoning, whisking until the cheese has melted and the sauce is smooth.
Return the cooked chicken to the skillet, along with the drained fettuccine. Toss everything together until the pasta is well coated in the creamy sauce.
Serve immediately, garnished with fresh parsley if desired. Enjoy the rich, savory flavors that remind me of my abuela’s kitchen warmth.
