- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
- 4 cloves fresh garlic, minced
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
- Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Sauté the chicken until golden brown and fully cooked (6-7 minutes per side). Remove from skillet and set aside.
- Boil salted water in another pot; cook fettuccine according to package instructions until al dente (8-10 minutes). Drain and set aside.
- In the same skillet, reduce heat, add minced garlic, and sauté until fragrant (about 1 minute). Pour in heavy cream.
- Gradually whisk in parmesan cheese until melted and creamy. Add cooked fettuccine and sliced chicken back to the skillet, tossing gently to coat.
