Ingredients

  • 6 tablespoons butter, divided

  • 6 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, cut into cubes

  • 4 cloves garlic, minced, divided

  • 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning

  • 1 (16 ounce) package fettuccine pasta

  • 1 onion, diced

  • 1 (8 ounce) package sliced mushrooms

  • cup all-purpose flour

  • 1 tablespoon salt

  • ¾ teaspoon ground white pepper

  • 3 cups milk

  • 1 cup half-and-half

  • 8 ounces shredded Colby-Monterey Jack cheese

  • ¾ cup grated Parmesan cheese

  • 3 Roma (plum) tomatoes, diced

  • ½ cup sour cream

Directions

  1. Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add chicken, 1/2 of the garlic, and Italian seasoning. Cook until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove from the skillet and set aside.

  2. Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil. Cook fettuccine at a boil until tender yet firm to the bite, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain.

  3. Meanwhile, melt remaining 4 tablespoons butter in the skillet. Add onion, mushrooms, and remaining garlic; sauté until onion is transparent, about 5 minutes. Stir in flour, salt, and pepper; cook for 2 minutes. Slowly add milk and half-and-half; cook and stir until smooth and creamy. Stir in both cheeses until melted.

  4. Stir in chicken mixture, tomatoes, and sour cream. Serve over cooked fettuccini.
