Ingredients
3 skniless chicken breast2 tbls olive oil2 tsp crushed garlic(optional for sauteing chicken)4 tbls butter1 cup heavy cream4 oz shaved parmesan8 oz fettucini pastasalt and pepper to tastedash of sugar to tastedash of nutmeg
you first need to get the pasta cooking and I assume you know how just follow the directions on the package, when the fettucinin is done just drain and set aside.
While the fettucinni is cooking you can prepare the chicken breasts. heat the olive oil in a frying pan and saute the chicken and garlic until the chicken juice runs clear and the chicken is done.
For the alfredo sauce, melt the butter over low heat in a pot that wlll be large enough to hold the pasta at the end of cooking.
Slowly add the cream and stir continually until it is hot, but not boiling .
Now add the parmesan cheese a little at a time and stir continually until all is melted. The sauce may take a while to thicken, keep stirring and dont let it boil. add the seasonings(including the sugar) acording to your taste.
Once the alfredo sauce is done, stir in the cooked chicken and then add the pasta to the alfredo sauce and chicken.
Serve and enjoy!!!
