Ingredients

– 1 pound chicken breast, cut into bite-sized pieces
– 8 ounces pasta (fettuccine or linguine is recommended)
– 4 tablespoons unsalted butter

– 1 cup heavy cream
– 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions

Creating Garlic Butter Chicken Bites with Creamy Pasta is as simple as following these easy steps:

1. Cook the Pasta: In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
2. Sauté the Chicken: In a large skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium-high heat. Add chicken pieces and season with salt and pepper. Cook for about 5-7 minutes or until golden and cooked through. Remove chicken from the skillet and set aside.
3. Make the Garlic Butter: In the same skillet, add the remaining butter and minced garlic. Sauté for about 1 minute or until fragrant, being careful not to burn the garlic.
4. Create the Sauce: Add the heavy cream to the skillet, stirring well to combine. Allow the sauce to simmer for 2-3 minutes, then mix in the Parmesan cheese until melted and creamy.
5. Combine Chicken and Pasta: Return the cooked chicken to the skillet, followed by the drained pasta. Stir until everything is well coated with the creamy sauce.
6. Season to Taste: Taste the mixture and adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed. If you like heat, sprinkle in some chili flakes.
7. Garnish: Serve immediately, garnished with fresh parsley for a pop of color and freshness.

Following these steps will culminate in a delicious meal that’s not only satisfying but also incredibly flavorful!
