Instructions
-
Cook the fettuccine pasta according to the package instructions until it’s al dente. Drain and set aside.

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook for about 6-7 minutes per side, or until they are cooked through and no longer pink in the center. Remove the chicken from the skillet and let it rest for a few minutes. Then slice it into thin strips.

Reduce the heat to low, then add the heavy cream, grated Parmesan cheese, and butter. Stir until the sauce is smooth and heated through. Season with additional salt and black pepper to taste.

Add the cooked fettuccine to the skillet and toss to coat it in the creamy Alfredo sauce.
