Creamy Garlic Chicken Pasta Recipe

This recipe is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that combines the flavors of chicken, garlic, and creamy sauce with pasta.

Ingredients

• 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breast or thighs, cut into bite-sized pieces
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 teaspoon dried basil
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 8 oz pasta of your choice (e.g., fettuccine, penne, or linguine)
• 2 tablespoons olive oil

Instructions

1. Cook the pasta according to the package instructions until it is al dente. Drain and set aside.
2. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chicken and cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
3. In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
4. Pour in the heavy cream and bring the mixture to a simmer. Let cook for 2-3 minutes until it starts to thicken.
5. Stir in the Parmesan cheese, basil, salt, and pepper. Let the cheese melt and the sauce thicken for another 2-3 minutes.
6. Add the cooked chicken back into the skillet and stir to coat with the creamy sauce.
7. Add the cooked pasta to the skillet and toss everything together until the pasta is well coated with the creamy garlic sauce.
8. Serve hot and enjoy!

Tips

• Use high-quality ingredients, such as fresh garlic and real Parmesan cheese, for the best flavor.
• Don’t overcook the pasta or the chicken, as this can make the dish tough and dry.
• Customize the recipe to your taste by adding other ingredients, such as diced vegetables or cooked bacon.
• Leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 3 days and reheated in the microwave or on the stovetop.
