Instructions
Making One-Pot Chicken Alfredo can be a simple and enjoyable process. Follow these easy steps:
1. Heat Oil: In a large pot or skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
2. Cook Chicken: Add the chicken pieces to the pot. Season with salt and pepper. Cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the chicken and set aside.
3. Sauté Garlic: In the same pot, add the minced garlic. Sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant but not browned.
4. Add Broth and Pasta: Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a simmer. Add the fettuccine pasta, stirring to ensure it’s submerged in the broth.
5. Cook Pasta: Cook the pasta according to package instructions, typically about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally until al dente.
6. Add Cream and Cheese: Once the pasta is cooked, reduce heat to low. Stir in the heavy cream and grated Parmesan cheese until the sauce is creamy and smooth.
7. Return Chicken: Add the cooked chicken back into the pot. Stir until everything is well combined and heated through.
8. Adjust Seasoning: Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed.
9. Garnish: Remove from heat and garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
