Ingredients

• 12 ounces Bow tie pasta
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 pound Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 3 cloves Garlic, minced
• 1.5 cups Heavy cream
• 1 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
• 0.5 cup Chicken broth
• 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
• 0.25 teaspoon Crushed red pepper flakes
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped

Directions

Step 1

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the bow tie pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

Step 2

While the pasta is cooking, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

Step 3

Slice the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces and season with 1/2 teaspoon of salt and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper.

Step 4

Add the chicken to the skillet and cook for 6-8 minutes, or until cooked through and lightly browned. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

Step 5

In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil and minced garlic. Sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 6

Stir in the heavy cream, Parmesan cheese, chicken broth, Italian seasoning, remaining 1/2 teaspoon of salt, remaining 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper, and crushed red pepper flakes. Whisk the mixture until smooth and bring it to a gentle simmer.

Step 7

Let the sauce cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it thickens slightly.

Step 8

Add the cooked chicken back to the skillet, stirring to coat it in the sauce.

Step 9

Gently fold in the cooked bow tie pasta and toss to combine, ensuring the pasta is evenly coated with the sauce.

Step 10

Sprinkle the dish with fresh parsley and serve immediately. Enjoy!
