Instructions
Step 1
Start by heating a splash of olive oil in a large skillet. Once it shimmers, add diced chicken. Let each piece brown for a few minutes on each side, locking in juices. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper as it cooks, so each bite has depth.
Step 2
Once chicken turns golden, toss in minced garlic. Stir gently until garlic releases that irresistible aroma. This step is key—it makes the dish fragrant, pulling all flavors together.
Step 3
Pour chicken broth and heavy cream over browned chicken. Stir until creamy base forms. When it reaches a gentle simmer, add uncooked pasta. Make sure each piece gets soaked into the creamy mix.
Step 4
Cover skillet, letting pasta cook until it reaches tender perfection. Stir occasionally, so pasta cooks evenly. If sauce thickens too much, a splash of broth or water loosens it.
Step 5
When pasta feels tender and sauce turns creamy, stir in grated Parmesan. Cheese melts into sauce, adding that signature garlic Parmesan flavor. Taste, adjusting salt and pepper as needed. If you like a little extra richness, an extra sprinkle of Parmesan works wonders.
