Ingredients:
- 1 pound fettuccine pasta
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 2 cups sliced mushrooms
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup heavy cream

Start by boiling a large pot of salted water and cooking fettuccine pasta according to the package instructions until it is al dente. While the pasta is cooking, heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook until browned and cooked through, about 5 minutes. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
Add sliced mushrooms and garlic to the same skillet and cook until the mushrooms are soft and browned, about 5 minutes. Return the cooked chicken to the skillet and stir in heavy cream and grated Parmesan cheese. Cook the sauce over medium heat until the cheese is melted and the sauce is creamy, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Drain the pasta and add it to the skillet with the Alfredo sauce. Toss the pasta until it is coated with the sauce. Serve hot and garnish with additional Parmesan cheese if desired. This recipe serves 4-6 people.
