Cook pasta: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.

paprika, salt, and pepper. Heat olive oil in a skillet over

medium-high heat and cook chicken pieces for 6–8

minutes until golden and fully cooked (75°C / 165°F).

Remove and set aside.

Prepare sauce: In the same skillet melt butter and sauté

garlic for 1 minute until fragrant. Pour in heavy cream

and milk, stirring gently. Simmer for 3–4 minutes.

Add cheese: Stir in Parmesan and mozzarella cheese

until melted and creamy. Season with salt and pepper.

Combine: Add cooked pasta and broccoli to the sauce

and toss until evenly coated. Return chicken to the skillet

and mix gently.

Serve: Garnish with parsley and extra Parmesan cheese

before serving hot.

💡 Tips

Use freshly grated Parmesan for the smoothest sauce.

Add chili flakes for a spicy Alfredo variation.

Reserve some pasta water to loosen the sauce if needed
