Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 0.5 pound Fettuccine pasta
- 2 cup Cooked shredded chicken
- 0.5 cup Buffalo sauce
- 0.5 cup Heavy cream
- 0.5 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 0.25 cup Butter
- 2 Garlic cloves minced
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt or to taste
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper or to taste
- 0.25 cup Chopped fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions
Preparation Steps
- Cook fettuccine pasta according to package directions. Drain, reserving about 1/2 cup of pasta water.
- In a large skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
- Add heavy cream and buffalo sauce to the skillet. Stir well and bring to a simmer.
- Stir in grated Parmesan cheese until the sauce is smooth and creamy. Season with salt and pepper.
- Add the cooked shredded chicken to the sauce and stir to combine. Let it simmer for a few minutes to heat through.
- Add the drained fettuccine to the skillet with the sauce. Toss to coat the pasta evenly. If the sauce is too thick, add a little of the reserved pasta water until desired consistency is reached.
- Serve immediately, garnished with chopped fresh parsley.
Notes
Adjust the amount of buffalo sauce to your preferred level of spiciness.
