Creamy Marry Me Chicken Pasta recipe Quick delicious comfort food

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 to 2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 pound fettuccine pasta
  • 1 cup oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes, drained
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (adjust to taste)
  • 1/2 cup low-sodium chicken broth
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh basil, for garnish

    • Instructions

  • Pound the chicken breasts to an even thickness (about ½ inch).
  • Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning.
  • Heat olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken breasts for 5-7 minutes per side, or until cooked through and golden brown. Use a meat thermometer to ensure an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
  • Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside. Slice the chicken into strips.
  • In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds to 1 minute until fragrant, being careful not to brown it.
  • Add the sun-dried tomatoes, red pepper flakes, and chicken broth to the skillet. Bring to a simmer and cook for 2-3 minutes.
  • Pour in the heavy cream and stir in the Parmesan cheese. Simmer for 5-7 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened slightly.
  • While the sauce is simmering, cook the fettuccine pasta according to package directions. Reserve about 1 cup of pasta water before draining.
  • Add the sliced chicken to the sauce and stir to combine.
  • Add the cooked pasta to the skillet with the sauce. Toss to coat, adding a little pasta water if needed to adjust the consistency of the sauce.
  • Garnish with fresh basil and serve immediately.
