Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to prepare for the crispy Parmesan broccoli.

- While the broccoli is baking, cook the fettuccine pasta according to the package instructions, then drain and set aside.
- Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. In a large skillet heated over medium flame, add olive oil and then the seasoned chicken. Cook for approximately 6-7 minutes on each side until golden brown.
- Remove the chicken from the skillet and let it rest. In the same skillet, add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant;
- Add the chopped spinach and artichoke hearts, followed by chicken broth and heavy cream. Stir and let it come to a gentle simmer.
- Reduce the heat to low. Incorporate grated Parmesan and shredded mozzarella into the sauce, stirring until melted and thickened.
- Slice the cooked chicken and add to the skillet along with the drained fettuccine, tossing gently to coat.
- For mushroom basil cream, melt butter in a small skillet over medium heat, sauté sliced mushrooms, then stir in heavy cream, simmer, and add chopped fresh basil, salt, and pepper.
- Serve the creamy chicken Alfredo with crispy Parmesan broccoli and drizzle with the mushroom basil cream.
