  1. Chicken Alfredo Recipe (en-US)

    Ingredients: 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (or ~1 lb), 2–3 tbsp olive oil, salt and pepper, 3–4 cloves garlic (minced), 2 tbsp butter, 2–3 cups heavy cream (or half-and-half for lighter), 1 cup grated Parmesan (plus more to serve), 8–12 oz fettuccine, 1/2–1 tsp Italian seasoning (optional), chopped parsley (optional). Steps: 1) Cook fettuccine in salted water until al dente; reserve 1/2–1 cup pasta water, then drain. 2) Season chicken with salt and pepper. Sear in a skillet with olive oil over medium-high heat until cooked through (about 5–7 minutes per side depending on thickness). Remove and slice. 3) In the same skillet, lower heat to medium. Add butter and garlic; cook 30–60 seconds until fragrant. 4) Pour in heavy cream and simmer gently 3–5 minutes, stirring. 5) Reduce heat to low; gradually whisk in Parmesan until smooth. If sauce is too thick, loosen with reserved pasta water a little at a time. 6) Add chicken and drained pasta to the sauce; toss to coat. Taste and adjust salt/pepper. Garnish with parsley and extra Parmesan.

  2. Quick Tips for Best Results

    Use low heat when adding Parmesan to prevent graininess. Reserve pasta water to help the sauce cling to noodles. For extra flavor, add black pepper, a pinch of nutmeg, or a small splash of lemon juice (optional).

  3. FAQ

    Q1: Can I use milk instead of heavy cream? A: You can, but sauce may be thinner—consider adding a little extra Parmesan and simmering longer. Q2: How do I store leftovers? A: Refrigerate in an airtight container up to 3–4 days; reheat gently with a splash of milk or water. Q3: Can I make it ahead? A: Cook pasta and sauce separately, then combine and reheat briefly before serving for best texture.
