Method

Preparation

Place the chicken breasts into the crockpot.
In a separate bowl, combine the heavy cream, minced garlic, butter, salt, and pepper. Pour this creamy mixture over the chicken.

Cooking

Cook on low for 6-7 hours until the chicken is tender and easy to shred.
About 30 minutes before serving, cook the fettuccine pasta according to package instructions.

Finishing Touches

Remove the chicken from the crockpot and shred it with two forks.
Add the cooked pasta and parmesan cheese to the crockpot along with the shredded chicken. Stir to combine everything beautifully.

Serving

Serve hot with roasted broccoli and garlic bread on the side, or substitute the chicken with lobster for a twist.

Notes

Ensure to cool leftovers completely before storing in an airtight container. Refrigerate for up to three days or freeze the Alfredo mixture (without pasta) for longer storage.
