Ingredients
Scale
1 pound of Boneless Chicken Breast, cut into strips
8 ounces of Pasta (Spaghetti or Linguine)
2 tablespoons of Olive Oil
4 cloves of Garlic, minced
1 cup of Chicken Broth
1 cup of Heavy Cream
1 cup of Parmesan Cheese, grated
¼ cup of Fresh Parsley, chopped (for garnish)
½ teaspoon of Red Pepper Flakes (optional)
Instructions
Begin by bringing a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add your pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente. This usually takes around 8-10 minutes. Reserve ½ cup of pasta water before draining.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chicken strips, cooking for 5-7 minutes until golden brown. Ensure the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F for safety.
Stir in the minced garlic and red pepper flakes, cooking for an additional minute until fragrant.
Pour in the chicken broth and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Add the heavy cream and grated Parmesan cheese, stirring continuously to create a creamy texture. You may want to add reserved pasta water to achieve your desired sauce consistency.
Add the drained pasta to the skillet, tossing everything together so the pasta is well coated in the sauce. Taste and adjust seasoning as necessary with salt and pepper.
Remove from heat and sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley for that extra burst of flavor. Serve immediately while hot.
