Cook fettuccine pasta in boiling water according to package instructions until done, then drain and set aside.

Flatten chicken breasts using a meat mallet for even cooking.

Season chicken breasts with onion powder, garlic powder, and salt on both sides.

Heat olive oil in a large pan over medium heat.

Add seasoned chicken breasts to the pan and cook for 5 to 7 minutes on each side until cooked through.

Remove chicken from the pan and let it rest on a cutting board for about 5 minutes before chopping into pieces.

In the same pan (or a cleaned pan), add heavy cream and season with garlic and salt to taste, then simmer over medium heat.

Once the cream starts to simmer, add parmesan cheese and stir, letting it simmer for 1 to 2 minutes or until it thickens.

Taste the sauce and adjust salt if necessary.

Add the cooked fettuccine to the sauce, making sure it's well covered, then add the chopped chicken and mix well before serving.
