Ingredients:
For the Chicken:
Two skinless and boneless chicken breasts
To taste, add salt and pepper.
One tablespoon of olive oil
Regarding the Alfredo sauce:
One cup of heavy cream
Half a cup of Parmesan cheese, grated
Two tablespoons of butter without salt
One minced garlic clove
To taste, add salt and pepper.
An optional sprinkle of ground nutmeg
Regarding the pasta:
12 ounces of pasta fettuccine
For boiling water, add salt.
Instructions:
Prepare the pasta:
Bring a big pot of water that has been salted to a boil.
As directed on the package, cook the fettuccine pasta until it’s al dente.
Save some pasta water to use in the sauce if necessary after draining the noodles.
Get the chicken ready:
Season the chicken breasts on both sides with salt and pepper while the pasta cooks.
In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.
When the internal temperature reaches 165°F/75°C, add the chicken breasts and cook for 5 to 7 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
After taking off the heat, let the chicken a few minutes to rest before slicing it into thin strips.
Prepare the Alfredo sauce:
Melt the butter in the same skillet over medium heat.
Cook the minced garlic for one minute, or until it becomes aromatic.
After adding the heavy cream, boil the mixture. Cook for two to three minutes, stirring now and then.
Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese and cook for 3–4 minutes, or until the sauce thickens. Add salt, pepper, and optional nutmeg for seasoning.
Add a small amount of pasta water to thin out the sauce if it’s too thick.
Put the Dish Together:
Toss to evenly coat the pasta after adding the drained fettuccine to the skillet with the Alfredo sauce.
After dividing the spaghetti among the dishes, place the chicken slices on top.
If preferred, add more Parmesan and black pepper as garnish.
