Creamy Chicken Alfredo Pasta

This creamy chicken Alfredo pasta combines tender fettuccine noodles, juicy chicken breast, and a rich, silky sauce made with butter, cream, and Parmesan cheese. A timeless comfort food that’s elegant and satisfying.

Ingredients

• 250 g fettuccine pasta
• 2 chicken breasts, sliced
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 200 ml heavy cream
• 60 g Parmesan cheese (grated)
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• Salt and black pepper to taste
• Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the fettuccine until al dente, then drain and set aside.

2. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Season chicken slices with salt and pepper, then cook until golden brown and fully cooked. Remove and set aside.

3. In the same pan, melt butter and sauté garlic until fragrant (about 30 seconds).

4. Pour in heavy cream, stir, and bring to a gentle simmer. Gradually whisk in grated Parmesan until smooth and creamy.

5. Add the cooked chicken back into the sauce, toss to coat evenly, then add the fettuccine. Mix gently until everything is covered in the sauce.

6. Garnish with chopped parsley and extra Parmesan. Serve immediately while warm and silky.

Tips

• Don’t overcook the pasta — al dente gives the best texture.
• Add a splash of pasta water if the sauce becomes too thick.
• Try adding sautéed mushrooms or spinach for extra flavor and color.
