Ingredients
  

8 oz fettuccine pasta

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cubed

Salt and pepper, to taste

4 cloves garlic, minced

1 cup heavy cream

1 cup grated Parmesan cheese

1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

½ cup frozen peas (optional)

Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish

Instructions
 

Cook the Pasta: In a large pot of salted boiling water, cook the fettuccine according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

    Sauté the Chicken: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Season the cubed chicken with salt and pepper, then add it to the skillet. Cook for 5-7 minutes, until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set it aside.

      Prepare the Sauce: In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Lower the heat and pour in the heavy cream, stirring well.

        Add Cheese and Seasoning: Gradually whisk in the grated Parmesan cheese and Italian seasoning. Continue cooking, stirring frequently, until the sauce thickens, about 2-3 minutes.

          Combine Everything: Return the cooked chicken to the skillet, and if using, add the frozen peas. Toss in the cooked fettuccine and mix well to coat the pasta in the creamy sauce. Cook for an additional 2 minutes until the peas are heated through.

            Serve: Garnish with freshly chopped parsley, and enjoy your delicious and creamy chicken garlic Parmesan pasta!
