Ingredients
  

2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts

3 cups heavy cream

1 cup chicken broth

1 cup grated Parmesan cheese

4 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

1 teaspoon salt

½ teaspoon black pepper

1 cup uncooked fettuccine pasta

2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Optional: extra cheese for serving

Instructions
 

Prepare the Chicken: Place the chicken breasts in the bottom of the slow cooker. Season them with salt, black pepper, and Italian seasoning.

    Add the Aromatics: Pour the minced garlic over the chicken, enhancing the flavor profile with the fresh aroma.

      Combine the Base: In a separate bowl, whisk together the heavy cream and chicken broth until well combined. Pour this mixture over the chicken in the slow cooker.

        Cook: Cover and cook on low for 4-5 hours or on high for 2-3 hours, until the chicken is tender and fully cooked (internal temperature of 165°F).

          Shred the Chicken: Once cooked, remove the chicken from the slow cooker and shred it using two forks. Return the shredded chicken back into the creamy sauce.

            Cook the Pasta: Stir in the uncooked fettuccine pasta into the slow cooker. Cover and cook on low for an additional 30-45 minutes, or until the pasta is al dente, stirring occasionally to ensure even cooking.

              Finish the Sauce: After the pasta is cooked, stir in the grated Parmesan cheese until melted and creamy. Adjust seasoning if necessary.

                Serve: Spoon the creamy chicken Alfredo into bowls, garnish with fresh parsley, and serve with extra Parmesan cheese if desired.
