Now, let’s dive into the instructions for preparing this delightful dish. Follow these steps to create a memorable meal in no time:

1. Cook the Fettuccini: In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the fettuccini and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
2. Cook the Chicken: In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped chicken, season with salt and pepper, and cook until fully cooked, about 6-7 minutes. Remove chicken from skillet and set aside.
3. Prepare the Sauce: In the same skillet, add minced garlic. Sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
4. Add Milk: Pour in the low-fat milk, stirring well. Bring to a simmer.
5. Thicken the Sauce (Optional): If you prefer a thicker sauce, mix cornstarch with a small amount of cold water to create a slurry. Pour it into the sauce and stir until it thickens.
6. Incorporate Spinach: Stir in the spinach and allow it to wilt, which should take about 2 minutes.
7. Combine Ingredients: Add the cooked chicken back into the skillet along with the fettuccini. Toss everything together until well coated.
8. Finish with Parmesan: Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese until melted and combined. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.
9. Serve Immediately: Remove from heat and serve hot, garnishing with fresh herbs if desired.
