CREAMY GARLIC BUTTER CHICKEN AND ROTINI IN PARMESAN SAUCE

 


NEED
• 12 oz rotini pasta
• 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cubed
• 3 tbsp butter
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tsp Italian seasoning
• 1/2 tsp garlic powder
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 1/2 cup chicken broth
• 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
• Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
👩‍🍳 Directions:
1️⃣ . Start by boiling a large pot of salted water. Add the rotini and cook until perfectly al dente. Drain the pasta and set it aside while you work on the rest.
2️⃣. In a deep skillet or sauté pan, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Toss in the cubed chicken and season it with garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Sear the chicken until it’s golden on the outside and fully cooked inside, then remove it from the pan and keep it warm.
3️⃣. Drop the last tablespoon of butter into the same pan. Once melted, stir in the minced garlic and let it cook for a minute, just until it smells amazing. Pour in the heavy cream and chicken broth, whisking gently to bring it all together.
4️⃣. Once the sauce starts to warm through, stir in the Parmesan and mozzarella. Let everything melt down into a silky, cheesy sauce, giving it a few minutes to thicken slightly.
5️⃣. Return the chicken to the pan along with the cooked rotini. Stir everything together so the pasta and chicken are well coated in that luscious garlic-Parmesan sauce.
6️⃣. Top it off with a sprinkle of fresh parsley and serve it hot. Creamy, cheesy, and garlicky in the best way.
