Ingredients

• 8 oz fettuccine
• 1 lb chicken breast
• 1 tsp kosher salt
• 1/2 tsp black pepper
• 2 tbsp canola oil
• 8 tbsp unsalted butter
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 1 cup parmesan, finely grated
• 1/4 tsp nutmeg, freshly grated
• fresh parsley, chopped

Method

• Put a large pot of salted water to boil.
• Wash and dry the chicken, then cut into small cubes and season with salt and pepper.
• Heat the oil on medium-high heat and cook one side of chicken for 5 to 7 minutes. If it's sticky to turn, it's too early to flip.
• Add the fettuccine to the water.
• Flip the chicken pieces, swirl 1 tbsp of butter around the pan, then cook for 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from pan and cover.
• When the pasta is cooked, save 1 cup of the water and drain the rest.
• Melt the rest of the butter in the pan and sauté the garlic until fragrant.
• Stir in the cream, parmesan, nutmeg, salt, and pepper, then simmer for 3 to 4 minutes to thicken. If the sauce is too thick add some of the pasta water.
• Serve with the chicen and garnish with parsley.
