What is the secret to a good Alfredo sauce?

Balance between fat, cheese, and aromatics. Use real Parmesan and cream.

Is milk or heavy cream better for Alfredo sauce?

Heavy cream makes it richer and more velvety. Milk can be used for a lighter version.

Use fresh garlic, lemon zest, herbs, and properly season the chicken before slow cooking.

It could be due to low-fat dairy, overheating, or not stirring cheese in slowly.

Place chicken breasts in the crockpot.
Sprinkle Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper over the chicken.
Pour in the heavy cream and chicken broth.
Add the butter cubes and minced garlic.
Cover and cook on low for 4–5 hours or until the chicken is tender.
Remove the chicken, shred it, and return it to the crockpot.
Add the Parmesan cheese and stir until melted and well combined.
Cook the fettuccine pasta separately according to package instructions, then drain.
Stir cooked pasta into the crockpot just before serving.
Garnish with chopped parsley if desired and serve warm.

For a thicker sauce, remove the lid for the last 30 minutes of cooking. You can substitute fettuccine with any pasta of your choice.
