Steps:
- Stir together the all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour and salt in a medium bowl, or on a clean board. Make a hollow in the center, and pour in the olive oil. Break eggs into it one at a time, while mixing quickly with a fork until the dough is wet enough to come together. Knead on a lightly floured surface until the dough is stiff and elastic. Cover, and let stand for 30 minutes to relax.
- Roll out dough by hand with a rolling pin, or use a pasta machine to achieve the desired thickness of noodles. Cut into desired width and shapes. Allow the pasta to air dry for at least 15 minutes to avoid having it clump together.

- When selecting chicken breasts, choose ones that are evenly sized so they cook evenly.
- To achieve a flavorful and crispy chicken, season it generously with salt, pepper, and garlic powder before cooking.
- For a crispy golden crust, cook the chicken breasts over medium heat until browned on both sides.
- Use a meat thermometer to ensure the chicken is cooked to an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) before removing it from the heat.
- Allow the chicken to rest for a few minutes before slicing to allow the juices to redistribute.
- To cook the fettuccine noodles, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the noodles according to the package instructions.
- Drain the noodles and return them to the pot. Add the butter, Parmesan cheese, and parsley, and toss to combine.
