Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups cheese tortellini
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley chopped (for garnish)

Method
 

  1. Cook the cheese tortellini according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.

  3. Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
  4. Pour in the heavy cream and bring to a simmer. Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese and Italian seasoning, mixing until the cheese is melted and the sauce is smooth.
  5. Add the cooked tortellini to the skillet and toss to coat in the sauce. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until heated through.
  6. Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley.
