Ingredients

Pasta

  • 8 ounces Pasta (Choose your favorite type such as fettuccine, penne, or spaghetti)

Cooking Oil

  • 2 tablespoons Olive Oil (Extra virgin olive oil is recommended)

Chicken

  • 1 pound Boneless, Skinless Chicken Breasts (Cut into bite-sized pieces)

Garlic

  • 4 cloves Garlic (Minced)

Cream

  • 1 cup Heavy Cream (Essential for creamy texture)

Cheese

  • 1 cup Grated Parmesan Cheese (Freshly grated is ideal)

Seasoning

  • 1 teaspoon Italian Seasoning (A blend of dried herbs)

Salt and Pepper

Instructions

  1. Cook the Pasta: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add pasta and cook until al dente. Reserve half a cup of pasta water before draining.
  2. Sauté the Chicken: In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add chicken, season with salt and pepper, and cook until golden brown, about 5-7 minutes. Remove and set aside.
  3. Add the Garlic: In the same skillet, reduce heat and add minced garlic. Sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
  4. Make the Cream Sauce: Pour in heavy cream, simmer for 2-3 minutes. Stir in Parmesan cheese and Italian seasoning until melted and smooth.
  5. Combine Everything: Return chicken to skillet, add drained pasta, and toss to coat. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.
  6. Garnish and Serve: Remove from heat, garnish with parsley, and serve immediately.
