One-Pot Chicken Alfredo Recipe

  • Author: David

Ingredients

Scale

    • 2 tablespoons of olive oil

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

    • Salt and black pepper to taste

    • 4 cloves of garlic, minced

    • 4 cups of chicken broth

    • 1 cup of heavy cream

    • 12 ounces of fettuccine or your choice of pasta

    • 1 cup of grated Parmesan cheese

    • 1 teaspoon of Italian seasoning

    • 1 cup of fresh spinach (optional)

    • Chopped parsley for garnish (optional)

Instructions

    1. Heat the Olive Oil: In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.

    1. Cook the Chicken: Add the chicken pieces to the pot, seasoning them with salt and black pepper. Cook for about 5-7 minutes until the chicken is browned and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the pot and set aside.

    1. Sauté the Garlic: In the same pot, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Be careful not to burn the garlic.

    1. Add Broth and Cream: Pour in the chicken broth and heavy cream, stirring to combine. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.

    1. Cook the Pasta: Add the pasta to the pot, ensuring it is submerged in the liquid. Cook according to the pasta package instructions, usually around 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.

    1. Incorporate the Cheese: Once the pasta is cooked al dente, reduce the heat to low and stir in the grated Parmesan cheese and Italian seasoning. Mix until the cheese is fully melted and the sauce is thickened.

    1. Combine with Chicken: Return the cooked chicken to the pot, stirring to combine with the pasta and sauce.

    1. Add Spinach (Optional): If using, gently fold in the fresh spinach until wilted, about 2-3 minutes.

    1. Garnish and Serve: Sprinkle with chopped parsley for a burst of color and freshness. Serve immediately and enjoy your homemade One-Pot Chicken Alfredo!
