Step 1

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add pasta and cook al dente, according to package instructions (about 8-10 minutes). Reserve 1 cup of pasta water, draining the rest. Set aside.

Step 2

In a large non-stick skillet over medium heat, melt butter. Add garlic and cook for 1 minute.

Step 3

Whisk in flour, cooking for 1-2 minutes or until golden. Slowly whisk in chicken broth and then heavy cream. Continue cooking until the sauce thickens slightly.

Step 4

Add parmesan cheese. Stir until cheese is melted.

Step 5

Add cooked pasta and chicken. Stir to combine. Add reserved pasta water until you reach your desired consistency. (I added ½ cup.)

Step 6

Cook for 3-5 minutes, or until chicken and pasta are warmed through.

Step 7

Garnish with parsley. Enjoy! (This is a mild dish, be sure to salt & pepper to taste!)
