Ingredients
Ingredients
- 2 breasts Chicken, boneless, skinless
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 2 cups Broccoli florets
- 8 oz Pasta (penne or fettuccine)
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 1 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Garlic powder (optional)
Instructions
- Cook the pasta according to package instructions; drain and set aside.
- In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook until browned and cooked through, about 6-7 minutes per side. Remove from the skillet and slice.
- In the same skillet, add the broccoli and cook for about 2-3 minutes until tender.
- Lower the heat and add the heavy cream and Parmesan cheese; stir to combine.
- Add the sliced chicken and cooked pasta to the skillet; mix until well coated. Season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder if using.
- Serve warm, garnished with additional Parmesan if desired.
Notes
Make sure not to overcook the broccoli; it should be bright green and tender but still have a bit of crunch. You can also add other vegetables like bell peppers or carrots for extra flavor.
