Ah, you’re talking about that dreamy, creamy, garlicky Angel Chicken Pasta vibe 🍝✨. Here’s a version that’s rich, comforting, and easy to make.
Angel Chicken Pasta
Ingredients:
- 2–3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 8 oz angel hair pasta
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 3–4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup heavy cream (or half-and-half for lighter)
- ½ cup chicken broth
- ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- Salt & pepper to taste
- Optional: fresh parsley or basil for garnish
Instructions:
- Cook the chicken: Season chicken with salt, pepper, and a little Italian seasoning. Sear in olive oil over medium heat until golden and cooked through. Remove and slice.
- Cook pasta: Boil angel hair pasta according to package instructions (it cooks very fast!). Drain and set aside.
- Make the sauce: In the same pan, add garlic and sauté 1–2 minutes. Add chicken broth and cream, bring to a gentle simmer. Stir in Parmesan until melted and sauce is creamy.
- Combine: Add cooked pasta and sliced chicken to the sauce. Toss until everything is coated and heated through.
- Garnish: Sprinkle with fresh parsley or basil. Optional: extra Parmesan on top.
Pro tip: Angel hair pasta cooks in 2–3 minutes, so watch it closely! Otherwise, your sauce-to-pasta ratio will be off.
If you want, I can give a slow cooker version of Angel Chicken Pasta where the chicken is super tender and infused with flavor—perfect for making ahead. That’s a game-changer for weeknight dinners. Want me to drop that?
