Ingredients:
- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 cups chicken broth
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 8 ounces fettuccine pasta
- 1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
Begin by heating the olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook for 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until browned on all sides. Add the garlic, salt, and pepper and cook for an additional minute.
Pour in the chicken broth, heavy cream, and uncooked fettuccine pasta. Stir to combine and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium-low and cover the pot with a tight-fitting lid. Simmer for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the pasta is tender and the sauce has thickened.
Remove the pot from the heat and stir in the Parmesan cheese and chopped parsley. Serve immediately, garnished with additional Parmesan and parsley if desired.
