Ingredients
  

  • * 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • * 2 tablespoons blackened seasoning
  • * 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • * 1 tablespoon butter
  • * 3 garlic cloves minced
  • * 1 cup heavy cream
  • * ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • * Salt and pepper to taste
  • * 3 cups cooked fettuccine pasta
  • * Fresh parsley optional, for garnish

Method
 

  1. Rub the chicken breasts with blackened seasoning on both sides.
  2. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken until blackened and fully cooked, about 6–7 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.
  3. In the same pan, melt butter and sauté garlic until fragrant (about 1 minute).
  4. Pour in heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer.
  5. Stir in Parmesan cheese and season with salt and pepper. Let the sauce thicken slightly.
  6. Add cooked fettuccine to the sauce and toss to coat evenly.
  7. Slice the blackened chicken and place it on top of the pasta.
  8. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot.
