Easy Chicken Alfredo😍
Ingredients
2 boneless skinless chicken breasts
1/2 teaspoon salt, divided
1/4 teaspoon pepper, divided
2 teaspoons olive oil
8 ounces uncooked fettuccine
6 tablespoons butter, cubed
2 cups heavy whipping cream
3/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese, divided
1/2 cup grated Romano cheese
2 large egg yolks, lightly beaten
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
Minced fresh parsley, optional
Directions:
1) Sprinkle chicken with 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. In a large skillet, cook chicken in oil over medium heat until a thermometer registers 165°, 8-10 minutes turning once. Remove and let stand at least 5 minutes. Meanwhile, cook fettuccine according to package directions.
2) In the same skillet, melt butter over medium-low heat. Stir in cream, 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, Romano cheese, nutmeg and remaining salt and pepper. In a small bowl, whisk egg yolks; stir in a small amount of hot cream mixture into egg yolks. Return all to the pan, stirring constantly. Cook and stir over medium-low heat until a thermometer reads 160° and has thickened slightly.
3) Drain fettuccine; serve with Alfredo sauce, sliced chicken and remaining 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese. Garnish with fresh minced parsley.
