1
In a small pan, melt the stick of butter over low heat.
2
Peel and chop the garlic cloves finely, then cook them in the melted butter over very low heat until fragrant but not browned.
3
Bring a large pot of water (4-quart size) to a boil, add 1 tbsp of salt, and cook the pasta until al dente. Reserve 1 cup of pasta cooking water before draining the pasta and returning it to the pot.
4
While the pasta cooks, place chicken breasts on a chopping board and cover with a piece of baking paper or cling film. Use the flat side of a meat mallet (or a heavy rolling pin) to flatten the chicken until it is 1/2 inch thick.
5
Season the chicken with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
6
Heat the olive oil in a heavy-based skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the seasoned chicken for 4 minutes on one side, then flip and cook for another 4 minutes, or until fully cooked through. Remove from heat and cover with foil to keep warm.
7
Combine half of the garlic butter and 1/4 cup of reserved pasta cooking water with the cooked pasta, stirring over medium heat until evenly coated. Add more pasta cooking water if needed.
8
Slice the chicken and serve alongside the pasta. Drizzle the remaining garlic butter over the dish and garnish with chopped parsley.
