Sizzling Cowboy Garlic Butter Chicken Pasta
Ingredients:
– 8 oz pasta your choice, such as fettuccine or penne
– 2 tablespoons olive oil
– 4 cloves garlic, minced
– 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, sliced
– 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
– 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
– 1/2 teaspoon salt
– 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
– 1/4 cup unsalted butter
– 1/2 cup heavy cream
– 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
– Fresh parsley, chopped for garnish
Instructions:
1. Start by boiling a large pot of salted water. Cook the pasta according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
2. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
3. Add the sliced chicken to the skillet. Season with smoked paprika, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Cook until the chicken is no longer pink and cooked through, about 6-8 minutes.
4. Stir in the unsalted butter and let it melt into the mixture, creating a delicious garlic butter sauce.
5. Pour in the heavy cream and stir well to combine. Bring the sauce to a gentle simmer.
6. Once the sauce is simmering, add the grated Parmesan cheese and mix until its melted and creamy.
7. Toss in the cooked pasta and stir until thoroughly coated in the creamy garlic butter sauce.
8. Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley on top for a burst of color and flavor.
