Classic Chicken Alfredo

Instructions

1. 1

   Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the fettuccine pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

2. 2

   While the pasta is cooking, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken breast and season with salt and black pepper. Cook until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through, about 6-7 minutes per side. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

3. 3

   In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.

4. 4

   Pour in the heavy cream and bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat to low and stir in the grated parmesan cheese until melted and the sauce is smooth.

5. 5

   Slice the cooked chicken into strips and add it back to the skillet along with the cooked fettuccine. Toss everything together until the pasta is well coated with the sauce.

6. 6

   Serve the chicken alfredo hot, garnished with chopped parsley.
