# Steps To Make It:

05 - Stir everything up until the sauce is nice and silky.
06 - Pour in the cream and sprinkle in the cheese.
07 - Turn down the heat so things don’t bubble over.
08 - Let the chicken go in the pan for about 5-7 minutes, until it’s got a nice color.
09 - Toss in the chicken cubes and minced garlic.
10 - Drop the butter in a big skillet and let it melt on medium.
11 - Pour the pasta into a strainer and leave it to chill out for a minute.
12 - Cook the pasta in salty water until you bite it and it’s just about done.

# Extra Notes:

01 - Want a little spice? Throw in a pinch of red pepper flakes, or splash of white wine for an extra punch.
02 - Freshly grated Parmesan amps up the flavor for sure.
