Introduction
A rich and creamy Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo made with tender seared chicken breast, savory Parmesan cheese, and an indulgent cream sauce. This quick and easy pasta dish is perfect for a delicious weeknight dinner.
Step 1
Drizzle olive oil over the chicken breast cutlets, brush to coat, and season both sides with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
Step 2
In a skillet over medium-high heat, melt 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Sear the chicken for 3 to 6 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken, tent with aluminum foil, and set aside.
Step 3
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt 1 stick (1/2 cup) of unsalted butter. Whisk in 2 tablespoons of cream cheese until softened and combined.
Step 4
Pour in 2 cups of heavy cream while whisking continuously. Season with 1 teaspoon of salt, 1 teaspoon of pepper, and 1 teaspoon of garlic powder. Turn heat to low, cover with a lid, and simmer for 15 minutes.
Step 5
While the sauce simmers, cook the fettuccine pasta in a pot of boiling salted water according to the package instructions.
Ingredients List
Important Notes
Although the on-screen text mentions 1 cup of heavy cream, the correct amount is 2 cups, as clarified by the creator's disclaimer.
Tenting the cooked chicken with aluminum foil helps keep it juicy while you prepare the sauce.
Using freshly grated Parmesan cheese instead of pre-packaged pre-shredded cheese ensures a smoother, non-clumpy melt in the sauce.
