A scrumptious Tuscan Chicken cream sauce over a bed of fettuccine pasta makes for the perfect quick and easy weeknight dinner!

We adore the “tuscan” kind of sauce around here. It’s cream based with garlic, Parmesan, and sun-dried tomatoes…usually with spinach. My boys get such a kick out of the spinach “melting” into the sauce.

The fettuccine noodles soak up the savory flavors, creating a comforting and easy to pull off on a weeknight dinner.

This dish brings a little taste of Tuscany and Italy to your table with every bite!
