Chicken Pasta is the perfect cozy recipe for busy nights. Creamy, garlicky, and delicious, this dish will become your new favorite comfort meal!

Ingredients

Scale

    • 2 large chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces

    • 2 tablespoons olive oil

    • 4 cloves garlic, minced

    • 2 cups heavy cream

    • 1 cup chicken broth

    • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese

    • 8 oz fettuccine pasta

    • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

    • 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)

    • Salt and black pepper, to taste

    • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley (for garnish)

Instructions

1. Cook the Pasta

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the fettuccine according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

2. Sizzle That Chicken

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chicken pieces, seasoning them generously with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning. Cook until golden brown and fully cooked through, about 6-8 minutes. Remove the chicken and set aside — resist the urge to nibble, it’s worth it!

3. Build the Dreamy Sauce

Using the same skillet (hello, fewer dishes), toss in your minced garlic. Sauté for about a minute until it’s fragrant but not browned.

Pour in the chicken broth and heavy cream, stirring to combine. Bring the sauce to a gentle simmer and let it bubble away for 3-4 minutes.

4. Cheese It Up

Stir in the Parmesan cheese (and red pepper flakes if you’re feeling a little spicy). Watch as the sauce thickens into creamy, cheesy goodness.

5. Bring It All Together

Return the cooked chicken and the drained pasta to the skillet. Toss everything together until that luscious sauce coats every single noodle. Sprinkle with chopped parsley for a fresh finish
