Ingredients

  • 1.5 lbs chicken breasts, diced
  • 1 box rotini pasta
  • 4 tablespoons butter
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 0.75 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
  • 0.5 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

Method

  1. 1

    Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

  2. 2

    Season diced chicken breasts with salt and pepper, then add to the skillet. Cook until golden brown and cooked through, about 6-8 minutes. Remove chicken and set aside.

    In the same skillet, melt butter over medium heat and add minced garlic. Cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

  4. 4

    Pour in chicken broth and bring to a simmer. Add the uncooked rotini pasta and cook according to package directions, stirring occasionally.

  5. 5

    Return cooked chicken to the skillet. Reduce heat to low and stir in heavy cream and Italian seasoning.

  6. 6

    Gradually add grated Parmesan cheese, stirring constantly until the sauce is smooth and creamy.

  7. 7

    Simmer for 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly. Adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper to taste.

  8. 8

    Serve hot and enjoy your creamy garlic butter chicken and rotini pasta.
