Ingredients
Method
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and season with salt and pepper. Cook, turning occasionally, until golden brown and cooked through, about 8 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
- Transfer the chicken to a cutting board and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
- In the same skillet, add the garlic, chicken broth, and milk. Season lightly with salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer over medium heat.
- Add the fettuccine and cook, stirring frequently, until the sauce begins to reduce slightly, about 3 minutes. Continue cooking, tossing occasionally, until the pasta is al dente, about 8 to 10 minutes more.
- Stir in the grated Parmesan and heavy cream until smooth and combined. Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens, about 3 more minutes.
- Remove from heat and stir in the sliced chicken. Sprinkle with chopped parsley before serving.
Notes
Chicken Alfredo isn’t complicated. It’s just creamy, cozy, and honest. If your sauce isn’t perfect the first time, that’s fine.
Mine wasn’t either. But it still tasted really, really good.
