A creamy and indulgent pasta dish that perfectly blends tender chicken with a luscious sauce, ideal for busy weeknights or special date nights.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1.5 lbs)
  • 3 cloves fresh garlic, minced
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 8 oz fettuccine or penne pasta
  • 1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
  • ½ cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Begin by preparing your ingredients. Chop the garlic and sun-dried tomatoes for easy cooking.
  2. In a large skillet over medium heat, add the olive oil.
  3. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Sauté for about 6-7 minutes on each side until they are golden brown. Once done, remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.
  4. In the same skillet, add the minced garlic. Sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
  5. Stir in the chicken broth and heavy cream, then bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
  6. Add the chopped sun-dried tomatoes and grated Parmesan cheese. Stir until the cheese melts and the sauce is well combined.
  7. Return the cooked chicken to the skillet, add the cooked pasta, and toss everything together until well coated.
  8. Serve immediately, garnished with fresh basil or additional Parmesan if desired.

Notes

For best results, ensure the chicken is at room temperature before cooking for even cooking. Don’t rush the simmer to obtain a thick, creamy texture.
