Ingredients
- 8 ounces Fettuccine pasta cooked al dente
- 4 thinly sliced chicken breast cutlets
- black pepper to taste
- kosher salt to taste
- Italian season to taste
- 2 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1/4 cup chicken stock
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/8 teaspoon grated nutmeg
- 1/2 cup pasta water as needed
Instructions
- Set a large pot of salted water over high heat.
- Once the water is boiling add the pasta and cook according to the box directions. Reserve 1/2 cup of the pasta water, drain and set aside until ready to use.
- Season chicken breast cutlets with the desired amount of black pepper, kosher salt, and Italian seasoning.
- Set a large high-sided skillet over medium-high heat and add unsalted butter.
- When the butter is hot add the chicken and cook both sides for about 3 minutes or until browned and fully cooked. If you use thicket sliced chicken cutlets you may need to cook it for a bit longer.
- Remove the chicken from the pan and set it aside. Let the chicken rest for a few minutes and slice the cutlets.
- In the same skillet add garlic and sauté for 30 seconds or until the garlic is fragrant.
- Pour chicken stock into the skillet and scrape up any brown bits on the bottom of the pan.
- Add the heavy cream, Parmesan cheese, and nutmeg to the skillet, and stir to combine.
- Simmer on medium heat until the sauce starts to thicken, about 5 minutes. Keep an eye on the mixture because dairy can scorch easily.
- Add in the cooked pasta and sliced chicken and toss to combine.
- If the sauce is too thick you can thin it out with the reserved pasta water. If it's too thin let it cook down a bit more until you reach your desired texture.
