A rich and creamy Chicken Alfredo made with tender sautéed chicken, fettuccine pasta, and a smooth Parmesan Alfredo sauce.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 chicken breasts, sliced
  • 12 oz fettuccine pasta
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 3 tbsp butter
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 1/2 cups heavy cream
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 cup pasta water
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1/4 tsp Italian seasoning
  • Fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. Cook the fettuccine according to package directions; reserve 1/2 cup of pasta water and drain.
  2. Heat olive oil in a skillet and cook sliced chicken until golden and fully cooked; remove and set aside.
  3. In the same skillet, melt butter and sauté garlic for 1 minute.
  4. Add heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer.
  5. Stir in Parmesan cheese until melted and smooth.
  6. Add pasta water as needed to adjust sauce thickness.
  7. Season with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning.
  8. Return chicken to the pan and toss in the cooked fettuccine.
  9. Garnish with parsley and serve warm.

Notes

  • You can replace heavy cream with half-and-half for a lighter sauce.
  • Freshly grated Parmesan melts better than pre-shredded.
  • Add broccoli or mushrooms for additional flavor and texture.
