Ingredients

10 ounces fettuccine pasta
1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breast (cut into bite-sized pieces)
4 cloves garlic (minced)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 cup chicken broth
1 cup heavy cream
1 cup grated parmesan cheese
Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Cook the fettuccine according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the chicken seasoned with salt and pepper until browned and cooked through (6–8 minutes). Remove and set aside.
In the same skillet, melt the butter. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
Sprinkle the flour over the garlic and whisk continuously for 1 minute to cook off the raw flour taste.
Gradually whisk in the chicken broth and heavy cream, stirring continuously until the sauce thickens (3–4 minutes).
Stir in the grated parmesan cheese until melted and the sauce is smooth.
Return the cooked chicken and fettuccine to the skillet. Toss everything together until well coated in the creamy sauce.
Serve warm, garnished with fresh parsley.
