Instructions
Preparation Steps
Cook fettuccine according to package instructions; drain and set aside.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute.
Season chicken breasts with smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Add to the skillet; cook until browned and cooked through, about 6-7 minutes per side.
Remove chicken from skillet; let rest for a few minutes before slicing it.
Pour heavy cream into the skillet, scraping the bottom to release any browned bits. Bring to a simmer.
Add cooked fettuccine and sliced chicken back into the skillet. Stir gently to combine.
Mix in crumbled feta cheese, allowing it to blend into the sauce for extra creaminess.
Serve hot, garnished with additional feta and a sprinkle of smoked paprika if desired.
Notes
Consider adding a sprinkle of fresh parsley for color. Pair with garlic bread for a complete meal!
