Ingredients

Scale

Gathering your ingredients is like setting the stage for a culinary success, and with this recipe, you’ll find everything you need is straightforward and accessible.

  • 2 medium chicken breasts, diced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 cups zucchini noodles (or “zoodles”)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (optional)

If you’re missing an ingredient, don’t stress! Swap heavy cream with coconut milk for a dairy-free version or use spiralized carrots instead of zucchini for a different twist. Cooking is all about flexibility and finding what works best for you and your family.


Instructions

Cooking should be an enjoyable experience, and these steps are designed to guide you with ease and confidence.

  1. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add diced chicken and season with salt and pepper. Cook until golden brown, about 5-7 minutes.
  2. Add minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
  3. Pour in the chicken broth and heavy cream, stirring to combine. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
  4. Stir in Parmesan cheese and Italian seasoning, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly, about 3-5 minutes.
  5. Add the zucchini noodles to the skillet, tossing gently to coat them in the sauce. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the noodles are tender but not mushy.
  6. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving, if desired.

Remember, cooking is as much about intuition as it is about following instructions. If the sauce seems too thick, a splash of water can loosen it up. Trust your instincts and enjoy the process!
