Step-by-Step Instructions

1
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the fettuccine noodles according to the package instructions until al dente. Reserve 1 cup of pasta water before draining the noodles.
2
In a large skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add the mixed mushrooms and cook until they release their moisture and start to brown, about 5 minutes.
3
Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter to the skillet and stir until melted. Add the cooked chicken breast and cook until heated through, about 2-3 minutes.
4
Pour in the heavy cream and bring the mixture to a simmer. Let cook for 2-3 minutes or until the sauce has thickened slightly. Stir in the grated parmesan cheese until melted and smooth.
5
Add the cooked fettuccine noodles to the skillet, tossing to combine with the creamy sauce. If the sauce seems too thick, add a bit of the reserved pasta water.
