Grandma would prepare this each Sunday morning. It’s still my favorite!

This creamy herb chicken pasta is a comforting dish that brings warmth to the dinner table, perfect for family gatherings or a cozy night in. Originating from the classic Italian tradition of combining pasta with a rich, creamy sauce, this dish is a delightful blend of tender chicken, aromatic herbs, and silky pasta. It’s a recipe that invites everyone to gather around and enjoy a hearty meal together, making it a favorite in our household.

This creamy herb chicken pasta pairs beautifully with a simple green salad dressed with a light vinaigrette to balance the richness of the sauce. A side of garlic bread or a warm baguette is perfect for soaking up any extra sauce. For a touch of freshness, consider serving with a side of steamed green beans or asparagus.
