Ingredients
  

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces

Salt and pepper, to taste

3 cups fresh broccoli florets

8 ounces fettuccine pasta

1 cup heavy cream

1 cup grated Parmesan cheese

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon garlic powder

½ teaspoon Italian seasoning

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Cook the Pasta: In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the fettuccine and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Add the broccoli florets to the boiling pasta during the last 2 minutes of cooking. Drain and set aside.

    Cook the Chicken: In a large skillet over medium heat, add the olive oil. Once hot, season the chicken pieces with salt and pepper, then add them to the skillet. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally until the chicken is cooked through and golden brown. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

      Make the Alfredo Sauce: In the same skillet, reduce the heat to low. Add the minced garlic, cooking for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Pour in the heavy cream, stirring to combine. Gradually add the grated Parmesan cheese, stirring continuously until melted and smooth.

        Combine Ingredients: Add the cooked chicken and pasta with broccoli into the skillet. Sprinkle in the garlic powder and Italian seasoning, stirring well to combine everything. Adjust seasonings with more salt and pepper if needed.

          Serve: Remove from heat and garnish with fresh parsley. Serve immediately and enjoy your creamy, comforting dish!
