12ouncesfettuccine pastaor your preferred pasta shape, cooked according to package directions (optional)
Instructions
Prep the Chicken Party:
● In a bowl, toss the chicken slices with olive oil, oregano, garlic powder, and black pepper.
● Let this flavorful crew marinate for 5 minutes while you cook the pasta (if using) or get the rest of your ingredients ready.
Chicken Gets Golden:
● Heat a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the marinated chicken and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
● Remove the chicken from the pan and set it aside on a plate for a well-deserved rest.
Building the Sauce Symphony:
● Add the Ragu sauce and heavy cream to the pan, using your tongs to scrape up any browned bits from the bottom (those flavor bombs are precious!).
● Bring this mixture to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until heated through, about 3-5 minutes.
Creating Creamy Magic:
● Reduce heat to low and stir in the grated Parmesan cheese. Keep stirring that luscious mixture until the cheese is melted and the sauce is nice and creamy.
● Be careful not to overcook here, or the sauce might separate.
The Grand Finale:
● Return the cooked chicken to the pan and toss it with the creamy Alfredo sauce. Stir in the chopped parsley, and then it’s time to plate!
● Serve this deliciousness immediately over cooked pasta, with extra Parmesan cheese for sprinkling on top, if your heart desires.
Notes
The recipe calls for pre-cooked pasta for convenience, but feel free to cook your favorite pasta according to package directions if you prefer a fresh-out-of-the-pot experience.
