Instructions

Season the chicken breasts with Italian seasoning, paprika, salt, and pepper on both sides.

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

Add the chicken breasts and cook for 5-6 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from the pan and set aside.

In the same skillet, add butter and melt over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until softened, about 2-3 minutes

 Add the minced garlic and cook for another 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

Add the penne pasta to the skillet along with the chicken broth.

Bring to a simmer and cook for 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the pasta is cooked and most of the liquid has been absorbed.

Stir in the heavy cream and Parmesan cheese until the sauce is smooth and creamy.

Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Slice the cooked chicken breasts and add them back to the skillet, nestling them into the pasta.

Sprinkle chopped parsley (or coriander) over the top for a pop of color and freshness.

Serve hot and enjoy your delicious one-pan Garlic Parmesan Chicken and Pasta with your special someone!
