Preparation
- Season the chicken on both sides with the salt. In a large Dutch oven or pot, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken, and cook until lightly browned and cooked through, 5–8 minutes per side, until the internal temperature reaches 165°F. Remove the chicken from the pot, and set aside.
- Reduce the heat under the pot to medium. Add the butter to the pot, and let melt. Add the shallots, and cook, stirring every few seconds, for about 2 minutes, or until translucent. Stir in the garlic, and cook, stirring often, for 1–2 minutes, until fragrant. Add the flour, and cook, stirring constantly, for 1–2 minutes.
- Add the stock, Italian seasoning, pepper, and nutmeg. Bring to a simmer over medium. Stir in the broccoli, and cook for 5–7 minutes, until soft.
- Meanwhile, cook the fettuccine in a large pot of boiling water for about 7 minutes, or until al dente. Drain the pasta, and set aside.
- Cut the cooked chicken into ½-inch pieces. Reduce the heat under the soup mixture to low. Stir in the cooked chicken and heavy cream. Slowly add the Parmesan, stirring continuously to ensure the cheese melts. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Soup will continue to thicken as it rests.
- Add the cooked fettuccine to a bowl, and ladle the soup on top. Garnish with parsley and more Parmesan.
- Enjoy!
