Ingredients
  

8 oz fettuccine pasta

1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts, diced

2 tablespoons olive oil

4 cloves garlic, minced

1 cup heavy cream

1 cup grated Parmesan cheese

1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

Salt and pepper, to taste

1 cup broccoli florets (optional)

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Cook the Pasta: In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Cook the fettuccine according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

    Sauté Chicken: In a large skillet over medium heat, add olive oil. Once hot, add the diced chicken. Season with salt and pepper. Cook until the chicken is browned and cooked through, about 6-8 minutes. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

      Make the Sauce: In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Pour in the heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer.

        Add Cheese: Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese and Italian seasoning. Continue to cook, stirring constantly, until the cheese has melted and the sauce is smooth.

          Combine Ingredients: If using broccoli, steam it until tender and add it to the sauce along with the cooked chicken and fettuccine. Toss everything together until well-coated in the creamy sauce. Adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.

            Serve: Plate the creamy garlic Parmesan chicken pasta in bowls and garnish with freshly chopped parsley. Enjoy your delicious creation!
