Why Make This Recipe

Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo is a classic Italian dish that many people love. This recipe is easy to follow and results in a creamy, delicious meal. It’s perfect for family dinners and special occasions. With tender chicken, rich cream, and savory cheese, this dish is sure to impress anyone who takes a bite.

How to Make Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo

Ingredients:

8 oz fettuccine noodles
1 lb chicken breasts
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 cups heavy cream
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 cloves garlic, minced
Salt and pepper to taste
Chopped parsley for garnish

Directions:

Cook the fettuccine noodles according to the package instructions; drain and set aside.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chicken breasts, season with salt and pepper, and cook until no longer pink, about 6-7 minutes per side. Remove the chicken from the skillet and slice it.
In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute.
Pour in the heavy cream and bring it to a simmer. Stir in the Parmesan cheese until it melts and becomes smooth.
Add the cooked fettuccine noodles and sliced chicken to the skillet; toss everything to coat in the sauce.
Garnish with chopped parsley and serve immediately.

How to Serve Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo

Serve Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo hot, directly from the skillet. You can add some extra grated Parmesan cheese on top for more flavor. Pair it with a side salad or garlic bread for a complete meal.

How to Store Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo

If you have leftovers, let the dish cool down first. Then, place it in an airtight container and store it in the refrigerator. It will stay fresh for about 3 days. To reheat, simply warm it up in a skillet or microwave until heated through.

Tips to Make Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo

Make sure not to overcook the chicken so that it remains juicy.
Feel free to adjust the amount of garlic or Parmesan cheese according to your taste.
You can add vegetables like broccoli or spinach for extra nutrition.

Variation

You can turn this dish into a seafood fettuccine by replacing the chicken with shrimp. The cooking method stays the same, just cook the shrimp until they turn pink.
