"This recipe is really delicious. I have to say this is relatively simple. I'm 18 and I don't exactly know how to cook. However my parents are away at the moment so I cooked this for 5 of my siblings. ..." See moreThey love it too! I gave this a 4 star because I seriously think that it contain WAAY TOO MUCH BUTTER! I think 1 cup of butter is all you need for cooking the fettuccini and the chicken. I'm finding ways to make the chicken have more flavour though."

"This turned out kind of gritty in my opinion and a little too cheesy if you ask me, but cheese lovers like my boyfriend thought it was delicious. I probably would've added some more chicken too to he..." See morelp balance the noodles out."
