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 cooks, cut the chicken breast into thin strips.

3. 3

   Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken strips and season with salt and black pepper. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and lightly browned. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

4. 4

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

5. 5

   Sprinkle the flour over the garlic and stir well to combine, cooking for another minute.

   Add the grated Parmesan cheese to the sauce and stir until melted and smooth.

8. 8

   Return the cooked chicken to the skillet and toss to coat in the Alfredo sauce.
