Ingredients
Steps
Season the bite-sized chicken breast pieces with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder, ensuring even coverage.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook until golden brown and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove chicken from the pan and set aside.
In the same skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
Pour in the heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer. Let it cook for 2-3 minutes to slightly thicken.
Stir in the grated parmesan cheese until melted and the sauce is smooth.
Add the cooked penne pasta and the cooked chicken back into the skillet. Toss thoroughly to coat everything in the creamy sauce.
Garnish with fresh parsley and serve immediately.
Notes
For the best results, use freshly grated parmesan cheese as it melts much smoother than pre-shredded varieties. If the sauce is too thick, add a splash of pasta water.
