Description

A creamy and comforting pasta dish featuring tender chicken, fresh broccoli, and aromatic herbs in a rich Alfredo sauce.


Ingredients

Scale

For the Crust:

  • 8 oz fettuccine pasta
  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cubed
  • 2 cups broccoli florets
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried basil
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

1. Prepare the Crust:

  1. Cook the fettuccine according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
  2. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chicken cubes and cook until browned and cooked through, about 6-8 minutes. Remove chicken and set aside.
  3. In the same skillet, add broccoli and garlic. Sauté for 4-5 minutes until broccoli is tender-crisp.
  4. Pour in heavy cream and bring to a simmer. Stir in Parmesan cheese, oregano, and basil until the sauce is smooth and creamy.
  5. Return the cooked chicken and pasta to the skillet. Toss everything together until well coated. Season with salt and pepper.
  6. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve immediately.
