Ingredients
Scale
12 oz Rotini Pasta
2 Chicken Breasts
4 Garlic Cloves, minced
2 tablespoons Ranch Seasoning
1 cup Mozzarella Cheese, shredded
½ cup Parmesan Cheese, grated
1 cup Heavy Cream
½ cup Milk
3 tablespoons Butter
1 tablespoon Olive Oil
Salt to taste
½ teaspoon Black Pepper
1 tablespoon Flour
Chopped Parsley, for garnish
Instructions
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook rotini until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Season chicken with ranch seasoning, salt, and pepper. Heat olive oil in a skillet and sear chicken 5–6 minutes per side until golden and cooked through. Remove and let rest.
In the same skillet, melt butter. Add garlic and sauté until fragrant. Stir in flour and whisk to form a roux.
Gradually whisk in heavy cream and milk. Cook until slightly thickened.
Add mozzarella and parmesan. Stir until cheese melts and sauce is smooth. Season with salt and pepper.
Toss cooked rotini into the sauce, coating evenly.
Slice chicken and place over the pasta. Garnish with parsley and serve hot.
