Ingredients

200 g fettuccine pasta
200 g boneless chicken (Cut into 1/2-inch cubes.)
3 tbsp unsalted butter
2 tbsp garlic cloves (The source does not specify whether the cloves should be minced or sliced.)
0.5 cup tomato sauce
0.25 cup unsalted heavy whipping cream
salt (To taste; used in the pasta cooking water and as needed.)
2 tbsp fajita seasoning
1 tbsp red chili flakes
0.5 cup colored bell peppers (Sliced.)
onion (Dice; quantity not specified in the source.)
0.5 cup Mexican four-cheese blend
green onions (Slice for topping; quantity not specified in the source.)

Steps

1
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add the fettuccine and boil until fully cooked. Drain the pasta and set it aside.
2
Dice the onion and slice the colored bell peppers. Cut the chicken into 1/2-inch cubes.
3
Marinate the cubed chicken with the fajita seasoning.
4
In a skillet, add the unsalted butter, red chili flakes, and garlic.
5
Add the seasoned chicken to the skillet and cook thoroughly.
6
Add the diced onion and sliced bell peppers. Sauté for an additional 4–5 minutes.
7
Add the tomato sauce and heavy whipping cream to the chicken mixture. Simmer for 2 minutes.
8
Add the Mexican four-cheese blend. Stir over medium heat until the cheese melts into the tomato mixture and forms a creamy sauce.
9
Add the cooked, drained fettuccine. Stir until the pasta is evenly combined and coated in the creamy sauce.
10
Top with sliced green onions and serve.

Notes

The source lists onion and green onions in the instructions but does not provide quantities. It also does not specify the amount of salt for the cooking water or the exact cooking time for the chicken; cook the chicken thoroughly as stated.
