Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 pieces Chicken Breast (Boneless and skinless)
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 1 teaspoon Black Pepper
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
  • 1 teaspoon Onion Powder
  • 1 teaspoon Paprika
  • 1 teaspoon Dried Oregano
  • 1 teaspoon Dried Basil
  • 2 tablespoons Olive Oil
  • 12 oz Penne Pasta
  • 2 tablespoons Butter
  • 1 cup Heavy Cream
  • 1/2 cup Parmesan Cheese
  • 2 tablespoons Fresh Parsley

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Season chicken with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, oregano, and basil. Add chicken to the pan and cook until lightly browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
  2. While the chicken cooks, add the penne pasta to boiling salted water. Cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
  3. Once the chicken is cooked, reduce the heat. Add butter to the skillet, letting it melt. Pour in the heavy cream, stirring gently. Allow the cream to simmer for a few minutes until it thickens slightly.
  4. Toss the drained penne pasta into the skillet, mixing until the pasta is coated in the creamy sauce. Add freshly grated Parmesan cheese and stir until melted and incorporated.
  5. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot.

Notes

For extra flavors, consider adding other vegetables like spinach or mushrooms to the dish. Serve with a side salad or garlic bread.
