**One-Pot Creamy Chicken Alfredo Recipe**



**One-Pot Creamy Chicken Alfredo Recipe**




**Ingredients:**
- 1 lb (450g) boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 8 oz (225g) fettuccine pasta
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 cups (480ml) chicken broth
- 2 cups (480ml) heavy cream
- 1 cup (100g) grated Parmesan cheese
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish (optional)

**Instructions:**

**Step 1: Sauté the Chicken**
1. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large pot or deep skillet over medium-high heat.
2. Add the diced chicken breast to the pot, season with salt and pepper, and cook until golden brown and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
3. Once cooked, remove the chicken from the pot and set it aside.

**Step 2: Cook the Pasta**
4. In the same pot, add another tablespoon of olive oil if needed.
5. Add the minced garlic to the pot and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
6. Pour in the chicken broth and heavy cream, and bring the mixture to a simmer.
7. Add the fettuccine pasta to the pot, making sure it's submerged in the liquid.
8. Cook the pasta, stirring occasionally, for about 10-12 minutes until it's al dente and the sauce has thickened.
9. If the sauce becomes too thick or the pasta isn't cooked yet, you can add more chicken broth or water as needed and continue cooking.

**Step 3: Add the Chicken and Cheese**
10. Once the pasta is cooked, return the cooked chicken to the pot and stir to combine.
11. Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the pasta and sauce, and stir until the cheese is melted and the sauce is creamy.
12. Taste the sauce and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper if needed.

**Step 4: Serve**
13. Once everything is well combined and heated through, remove the pot from the heat.
14. Garnish the creamy chicken Alfredo with chopped fresh parsley for a pop of color and freshness, if desired.
15. Serve the creamy chicken Alfredo hot, straight from the pot, and enjoy!

This one-pot creamy chicken Alfredo is a comforting and satisfying meal that's perfect for busy weeknights or any time you're craving a delicious pasta dish. Enjoy the creamy sauce, tender chicken, and perfectly cooked fettuccine noodles all in one pot!
