Ingredients
Avocado oil 1 tbsp or 14g
Directions
- Prepare pasta according to package directions. Reserve 1/2 cup of pasta water. Cook chicken as you like - Slicing and cooking in a skillet with a little oil and seasoning is a quick method. After straining pasta, use the same pot (without pasta in it). Heat oil on medium low, then add garlic and cook until just beginning to brown - it burns quickly! Immediately add cream and whisk together. Turn off heat and add cheese. Mix until cheese is melted into sauce, then add pasta back to pot with sauce. Stir, adding pasta water a little at a time if the sauce is a too thick. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve with sliced chicken, broccoli, and a sprinkling of cheese.
