Creating Marry Me Chicken Pasta can be easy, especially when you follow these clear steps:

1. Cook the Pasta: Start by cooking the fettuccine according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
2. Prepare the Chicken: While the pasta cooks, season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper evenly on both sides.
3. Sear the Chicken: In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and sear for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until cooked through. Remove and set aside to rest.
4. Sauté the Garlic: In the same skillet, add minced garlic and Italian seasoning. Cook for about 1 minute until garlic is fragrant.
5. Make the Sauce: Pour in the heavy cream and chicken broth, bringing to a simmer. Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese until melted and combined.
6. Combine Chicken and Pasta: Slice the rested chicken breasts into strips and add them back into the skillet. Toss in the cooked pasta, ensuring everything is well coated in the creamy sauce.
7. Garnish: Remove from heat and sprinkle with fresh parsley and optional red pepper flakes for an extra kick.
8. Serve Immediately: Plate the pasta while it’s hot to savor its flavors at their best.

Following these steps will guide you to create an incredible dish that dazzles any audience.
