Ingredients<\/strong><\/h2>\n
    \n
  • 8 oz rotini pasta<\/li>\n
  • 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breast, diced<\/li>\n
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter<\/li>\n
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced<\/li>\n
  • 1 cup Velveeta cheese, cubed<\/li>\n
  • 1 cup heavy cream<\/li>\n
  • 1\/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese<\/li>\n
  • 1\/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese<\/li>\n
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning<\/li>\n
  • Salt and black pepper (to taste)<\/li>\n
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Instructions<\/strong><\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Cook the Pasta<\/strong>
      \nBring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the rotini according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.<\/li>\n
    2. Cook the Chicken<\/strong>
      \nIn a large skillet over medium heat, melt 2 tablespoons of butter.
      \nAdd diced chicken, season with salt and pepper, and cook until golden and fully cooked (about 6\u20138 minutes). Remove and set aside.<\/li>\n
    3. Make the Garlic Butter Base<\/strong>
      \nIn the same skillet, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter.
      \nStir in the minced garlic and cook for about 1 minute until fragrant.<\/li>\n
    4. Prepare the Cheese Sauce<\/strong>
      \nPour in the heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer.
      \nAdd Velveeta cubes, Parmesan, and mozzarella cheese. Stir continuously until the sauce becomes smooth and creamy.<\/li>\n
    5. Combine Everything<\/strong>
      \nAdd the cooked pasta and chicken back into the skillet.
      \nSprinkle in Italian seasoning and mix well until everything is coated in the cheesy sauce.<\/li>\n
    6. Finish & Serve<\/strong>
      \nTaste and adjust seasoning if needed.
      \nGarnish with fresh parsley and serve warm.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Tips<\/strong><\/p>\n

      • Adjust cheese amounts for extra creaminess<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
