Ingredients
1.5 lbs Boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into strips
2 cups Heavy cream
1.5 cups Freshly grated parmesan cheese
4 tbsp Unsalted butter
4 cloves Minced fresh garlic
16 oz Dried fettuccine pasta
1 cup Low sodium chicken broth
Instructions
Place chicken, butter, and garlic in the slow cooker.
Pour chicken broth over the ingredients.
Cover and cook on high heat for three hours until chicken reaches 165°F.
Shred the chicken directly in the cooker using two forks.
Stir in the heavy cream and freshly grated parmesan until well combined.
Add dry fettuccine pasta to the cooker, ensuring it is submerged in the liquid.
Cook for an additional 30 minutes until pasta is al dente and sauce has thickened.
Serve immediately while warm and glossy.
Notes
Always use fresh, block parmesan cheese for the best melt and emulsification. Avoid pre-shredded cheese as it contains anti-caking agents that prevent a smooth sauce consistency. Ensure pasta is fully covered by liquid to cook evenly.
