Recipe: Easy One-Pot Chicken Alfredo 

Prep time: 10 minutes

Cook time: 20 minutes

Total time: 30 minutes

Servings: 4 

Ingredients 

• 2 tablespoons olive oil 

• 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts, sliced thick 

• Salt and pepper, to taste 

• 3 cloves garlic, minced 

• 2 cups low-sodium chicken broth 

• 1 cup heavy cream 

• 8 ounces fettuccine, broken in half 

• 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese 

• Chopped parsley, for garnish 

Instructions 

1. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet or pot over medium-high heat. Season the sliced chicken with salt and pepper and add it to the pot. Cook the chicken until it's browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the chicken from the pot and set it aside on a plate. 
2. In the same pot, reduce the heat to medium and add the minced garlic. Cook for about 1 minute, or until fragrant. 
3. Pour the chicken broth and heavy cream into the pot, stirring to combine. Add the fettuccine to the pot, making sure it's fully submerged in the liquid. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the pasta is cooked and the sauce has thickened. Stir the mixture occasionally to prevent sticking. 
4. Once the pasta is cooked, add the cooked chicken back into the pot, followed by the grated Parmesan cheese. Stir everything together until the cheese is melted and the sauce is smooth and creamy. 
5. Serve the one-pot chicken Alfredo in bowls, garnished with chopped parsley. Enjoy your delicious, comforting meal!
