Ingredients
  

Protein
  • 1 lb Chicken breast, cubed
Pasta
  • 8 oz Pasta (fusilli or penne)
Sauce
  • 1 cup Heavy cream
  • 1 cup Chicken broth
Veggies
  • 4 cloves Garlic, minced
  • 1 cup Sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
Cheese
  • 1 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
Oil & Seasoning
  • 2 tablespoons Olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
Garnish
  • Fresh basil for garnish

Method
 

Cooking Steps
  1. Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add cubed chicken and cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes.
  2. Stir in minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
  3. Add sun-dried tomatoes, pasta, chicken broth, and heavy cream to the pot.
  4. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer. Cook until pasta is tender, about 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  5. Stir in grated Parmesan cheese until melted and creamy. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  6. Garnish with fresh basil before serving.

Notes

Make sure to cube chicken evenly for consistent cooking. Keep an eye on the pasta to ensure it doesn’t overcook. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
