① Prep the pasta: Bring a large pot of salted water to boil. Drop in the pasta all at once and quickly bring the water back to boil, stirring occasionally. Cook the pasta for 8 to 10 minutes or until al dente. Drain well.
② Cook the chicken: Meanwhile, in a large saucepan melt the 2 tbsp of butter. Season the chicken with salt and pepper then add to the saucepan. Cook until slightly golden and cooked through, about 8 minutes. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.
③ Create the sauce: Melt the 8 tbsp of butter over medium-high heat in the same pan then add the ricotta cheese, heavy cream, Parmesan cheese and stir to combine everything together. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Taste the sauce for salt and pepper and season as necessary.
④ Finish the Alfredo: Add the chicken and fettuccine back to the saucepan and toss everything together and continue cooking until heated through. Garnish with extra Parmesan cheese and chopped parsley and serve immediately.
⑤ Slather the top of each slice of Pane Turano with the garlic mixture and return to the broiler.
Cook until the cheese is golden and bubbling. Serve and enjoy!
