Description

Tender chicken breast smothered in a rich, creamy garlic parmesan sauce, served over twisted pasta with a cheesy finish.


Ingredients

Scale

For the Crust:

  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, sliced
  • 8 oz twisted pasta (such as fusilli or rotini)
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

1. Prepare the Crust:

  1. Cook the twisted pasta according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
  2. Season chicken slices with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and cook chicken until golden and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.
  3. In the same skillet, melt butter and sauté minced garlic until fragrant, about 1 minute. Pour in heavy cream and bring to a simmer.
  4. Stir in grated parmesan and mozzarella cheeses until melted and sauce is smooth. Return chicken to the skillet and simmer for 2-3 minutes.
  5. Add cooked pasta to the skillet, tossing to coat in the sauce. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot.

Notes

You can customize the seasonings to taste.
