Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb chicken breast cubed
  • 12 oz fettuccine
  • 3 cups chicken broth
  • 1.5 cups heavy cream
  • 1 cup parmesan cheese grated
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 tbsp butter

Method
 

  1. Melt the butter in a large pot and cook the chicken until browned, then add the garlic.
  2. Pour in the broth and cream and bring to a simmer.
  3. Add the fettuccine and cook, stirring often, until the pasta is tender and the liquid reduces.
  4. Stir in the parmesan until the sauce is smooth and creamy.
  5. Season to taste and serve right away.

Notes

Keep stirring so the pasta doesn't stick to the bottom.
