Ingredients

500g chicken breast, sliced into strips

400g fettuccine pasta

3 tbsp butter

4 cloves garlic, minced

2 cups heavy cream

1 cup grated Parmesan cheese

1/2 cup pasta water

1 tsp salt

1/2 tsp ground black pepper

1/2 tsp Italian seasoning

1 tbsp olive oil

2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (optional)

Directions

  1. Cook the fettuccine according to the package instructions until al dente. Reserve 1/2 cup of the pasta water, then drain the pasta and set aside.
  2. Season the chicken strips with salt, ground black pepper, and Italian seasoning.
  3. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken and cook for 5–7 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden brown and fully cooked. Remove from the pan and set aside.
  4. In the same skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
  5. Pour in the heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer. Gradually add the Parmesan cheese, stirring continuously until the cheese melts and the sauce becomes smooth and creamy.
  6. Add the cooked fettuccine to the sauce and toss until evenly coated. Add a little reserved pasta water if the sauce is too thick.
  7. Return the cooked chicken to the skillet and gently toss everything together. Cook for another 1–2 minutes.
  8. Transfer to a serving dish, garnish with fresh parsley and additional Parmesan cheese if desired, and serve hot. Enjoy your creamy Chicken Alfredo!
