Ingredients
Scale
- 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 tablespoons blackened seasoning
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 12 oz fettuccine pasta
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 1/2 cups heavy cream
- 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Chopped parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Cook the fettuccine pasta according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
- Rub both sides of the chicken breasts with blackened seasoning.
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook for 5–7 minutes on each side or until fully cooked and blackened. Remove from pan and let rest.
- In the same skillet, lower the heat and add butter. Once melted, sauté garlic until fragrant, about 1 minute.

- Toss the cooked pasta in the Alfredo sauce until well coated.
- Slice the blackened chicken and serve over the Alfredo pasta. Garnish with chopped parsley if desired.
Notes

- For a lighter version, use half-and-half instead of heavy cream.
- Adjust the level of blackened spice to your taste preference.
