Ingredients
Scale
- 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 tablespoons blackening seasoning
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 8 ounces fettuccine pasta
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons butter
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Chopped parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Cook the fettuccine according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
- Season both sides of the chicken breasts with blackening seasoning.
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken for 5-7 minutes on each side until fully cooked and blackened.
- In the same skillet, add butter and heavy cream. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat and stir in Parmesan cheese until melted and smooth.
- Add cooked fettuccine to the sauce and toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve fettuccine topped with slices of blackened chicken and garnish with parsley.
Notes
For best results, ensure your skillet is sufficiently hot for a perfect blackened crust. Let the chicken rest before slicing for juicier meat.
