Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 16 ounces boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons cajun seasoning
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1 cup water
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • 8 ounces fettuccine (uncooked)
  • 2/3 cup parmesan cheese (grated)

Instruction

  • Cube chicken breasts and season with salt and cajun seasoning.
  • Heat saute pan over medium heat. Add olive oil to pan. When heated, add cubed chicken and cook evenly on all sides, about 4-5 minutes. Remove chicken from pan, set aside, and cover to keep warm.
  • Add minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds. Add chicken broth, water, heavy cream, and pasta to pan. Stir to combine. Bring to a boil, cover, and reduce heat to low. Simmer for 8-10 minutes (or according to your pasta's package directions for al dente pasta). Most of the liquid should be absorbed. 
  • Remove lid and add parmesan cheese. Stir to combine and allow cheese to melt, about 1-2 minutes. 
  • Add cooked chicken and stir to incorporate. Remove pan from heat and allow to sit for 5 minutes to allow sauce to thicken.
  • Optionally, top pasta with fresh parsley before serving.
