Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 1 cup half & half or heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup whole milk
  • 1 1/2 cups grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg (optional)
  • 16 ounces fettuccine pasta
  • 2 1/2 cups cooked rotisserie chicken, shredded

Instructions

  1. Cook the fettuccine according to package instructions. Reserve 1/2 cup of pasta water before draining.
  2. In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute.
  3. Pour in the half & half (or heavy cream) and milk. Stir to combine.
  4. Add Parmesan cheese, salt, pepper, and nutmeg if using. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring until smooth and creamy.
  5. Add shredded rotisserie chicken and mix until coated in the sauce.
  6. Add cooked pasta to the skillet and toss to combine. Use reserved pasta water as needed to adjust consistency.
  7. Serve immediately with extra Parmesan if desired.

Notes

  • Use freshly grated Parmesan for the best smooth sauce.
  • Add vegetables like broccoli, peas, or mushrooms for extra nutrition.
  • Adjust sauce thickness with reserved pasta water.
  • Avoid high heat to prevent sauce from separating.
  • Best served fresh but can be stored for up to 3 days.
  • Reheat with added milk or cream to restore texture.
