#### **Instructions:**
1. **Cook the Pasta:**
Begin by cooking your pasta according to the package instructions. Once done, drain and set it aside.
2. **Cook the Chicken:**
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning. Cook the chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side until golden and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
3. **Make the Creamy Sauce:**
In the same skillet, add minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Add in the heavy cream and chicken broth, stirring to combine. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook for 4-5 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly.
4. **Add the Parmesan:**
Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese and continue to cook for another 2-3 minutes, stirring until the sauce is smooth and creamy.
5. **Combine and Serve:**
Slice the cooked chicken into strips. Add the cooked pasta to the creamy sauce, tossing until the pasta is well-coated. Top with sliced chicken, a sprinkle of fresh parsley, and additional Parmesan if desired.
6. **Enjoy!**
Serve with a side of garlic bread or a simple salad, and watch as your husband takes that first bite with a big smile!
