Ingredients

  • 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt, divided
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper, divided
  • 2 teaspoons olive oil
  • 8 ounces uncooked fettuccine
  • 6 tablespoons butter, cubed
  • 2 cups heavy whipping cream
  • 3/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese, divided
  • 1/2 cup grated Romano cheese
  • 2 large egg yolks, lightly beaten
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • Minced fresh parsley, optional

Directions

  1. Sprinkle chicken with 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. In a large skillet, cook chicken in oil over medium heat until a thermometer registers 165°, 8-10 minutes turning once. Remove and let stand at least 5 minutes. Meanwhile, cook fettuccine according to package directions.
  2. In the same skillet, melt butter over medium-low heat. Stir in cream, 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, Romano cheese, nutmeg and remaining salt and pepper. In a small bowl, whisk egg yolks; stir in a small amount of hot cream mixture into egg yolks. Return all to the pan, stirring constantly. Cook and stir over medium-low heat until a thermometer reads 160° and has thickened slightly.
  3. Drain fettuccine; serve with Alfredo sauce, sliced chicken and remaining 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese. Garnish with fresh minced parsley.
