Ingredients


For the Chicken Bites:

1 lb boneless, skinless chicken

breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces

2 tablespoons olive oil

4 tablespoons unsalted butter

4 cloves garlic, minced

Salt and pepper to taste

1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

For the Creamy Parmesan Pasta:

12 oz fettuccine or pasta of your

choice


2 tablespoons butter

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 cup heavy cream

1 cup grated Parmesan cheese

1/2 cup chicken broth

Salt and pepper to taste

Extra garlic butter (optional, for

drizzling))


Preparation


Cook the Pasta: Boil a large pot of

salted water and cook the pasta

according to package instructions

until al dente. Drain and set aside.

Cook the Chicken Bites: In a large

skillet, heat olive oil over medium-

high heat. Add the chicken bites,

seasoning with salt, pepper, and

Italian seasoning. Cook until golden

brown and cooked through, about 6- 8 minutes. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.


Make the Garlic Butter Sauce: In the

same skillet, reduce the heat to

medium and add the butter. Once

melted, add the minced garlic and


sauté for about 30 seconds until

fragrant. Return the cooked chicken

to the skillet and toss to coat in the

garlic butter sauce.

Prepare the Creamy Parmesan

Sauce: In a separate skillet, melt 2

tablespoons of butter over medium

heat. Add the minced garlic and

sauté for another 30 seconds. Stir in

the heavy cream and chicken broth,

bringing the mixture to a gentle

simmer. Gradually whisk in the

grated Parmesan cheese until

smooth, and season with salt and pepper to taste.

Combine Pasta and Sauce: Toss the

cooked pasta in the creamy

Parmesan sauce, ensuring it’s well

coated.

Serve: Plate the creamy Parmesan

pasta and top with the garlic butter

chicken bites. Drizzle with extra

garlic butter if desired and garnish

with fresh parsley
