1
In a large pot, heat 1–2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the thinly sliced chicken breasts and sprinkle with 1 teaspoongarlic powder. Cook 4–6 minutes per side, or until golden and fully cooked through. Remove the chicken to a plate and set aside to rest. Cut into bite-sized pieces if needed.
2
In the same pot, add the chopped carrots and chopped celery. Sauté for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they soften and begin to release their sweetness.
3
Pour in 4 cups of chicken broth and bring the mixture to a boil. If using the optional fettuccine, add it now and cook until al dente, about 8–10 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent the pasta from sticking.
4
Reduce the heat to low. Stir in 1 cupheavy cream and 1 cupgrated Parmesan cheese, then add 1/2 teaspoonsalt and 1/2 teaspoonblack pepper. Mix gently until the cheese melts and the soup becomes creamy and smooth. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.

Add the cooked chicken back into the pot and warm through for 2–3 minutes so the flavors meld. If the soup is too thick, add a splash of extra chicken broth to reach your desired consistency.
6
Serve hot in bowls, garnished with chopped parsley for brightness. Enjoy immediately.
