Ingredients: 2 chicken breasts, cut in half lengthwise 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder Salt & pepper to taste Flour for dredging 1 tablespoon olive oil 3 tablespoons butter, divided 8 ounces uncooked fettuccine 4 ounces cream cheese (1/2 block of Philly), softened 1 cup heavy/whipping cream 1/4 cup chicken broth 2 large cloves garlic, minced 1 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese Instructions: Soften the Cream Cheese: Take the cream cheese out of the fridge to soften at least 30 minutes before starting the recipe, or microwave it for 20-30 seconds. Grate the parmesan cheese. Prepare other ingredients as you go. Cook the Fettuccine: Boil a large, salted pot of water for the fettuccine. Cook it al dente according to package directions. Prepare the Chicken: Cut the chicken breasts in half lengthwise to create 4 thinner cutlets. Season them with garlic powder, salt, and pepper on both sides. Dredge the chicken in flour, coating it evenly. Cook the Chicken: In a deep skillet over medium-high heat, add the olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter. Once the pan is hot, cook the chicken for about 5 minutes per side, or until golden and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the pan and set it aside on a plate. Make the Sauce: Wipe out or rinse the skillet if there's excess grease. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter, softened cream cheese, heavy cream, chicken broth, and minced garlic to the skillet. Return the pan to medium heat. Stir to help the cream cheese melt into the sauce, which will take a few minutes. Reduce the Sauce: Once the cream cheese is fully incorporated, let the sauce gently bubble for about 5 minutes to reduce slightly. Stir occasionally. While the sauce is cooking, slice the chicken into bite-sized strips. Finish the Sauce: Stir in the grated parmesan cheese and cook the sauce for about a minute longer. If the sauce becomes too thick, add a splash of hot pasta water to thin it out. Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper as needed. 🍲 Combine Pasta and Sauce: Drain the cooked fettuccine and add it to the skillet. Toss the pasta with the sauce until well coated. Serve the fettuccine with the sliced chicken on top, or mix the chicken into the pasta. Grate additional parmesan cheese over the dish as desired. Enjoy your creamy Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo!
