– 12 ounces pasta (fusilli or penne work well)
– 1 tablespoon olive oil
– 1 onion, diced

– 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions
Creating One Pot Chicken Pasta is straightforward if you follow these simple steps:
1. Heat the Pot: In a large pot or deep skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
2. Cook the Chicken: Add the diced chicken to the pot. Season with salt and pepper. Cook for about 5-7 minutes until browned and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the pot and set aside.
3. Sauté Onions and Garlic: In the same pot, add the diced onions. Sauté for about 3 minutes or until they become translucent. Then, stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.
4. Add Pasta: Stir in the pasta, ensuring it is well mixed with the onions and garlic.
5. Pour in Broth: Add the chicken broth and bring the mixture to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat and simmer for about 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the pasta is tender and most of the liquid has been absorbed.
6. Stir in Cream: Reduce the heat to low and slowly stir in the heavy cream and Parmesan cheese. Mix until combined and creamy.
7. Return Chicken: Add the cooked chicken back into the pot and mix everything together.
8. Season: Stir in the Italian seasoning. Adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper as needed.
9. Garnish and Serve: Remove from heat and garnish with chopped parsley before serving.
Following these steps will help you whip up this incredible dish effortlessly, bringing joy and satisfaction to your dining experience.
