Steps:
- Slice each chicken breast horizontally into 3 thinner pieces using a sharp knife. Sprinkle each chicken piece with garlic salt and Italian seasoning on both sides.

- Add milk and garlic to the skillet. Bring to a simmer and add fettuccine. Cook, stirring every 30 seconds to prevent sticking until pasta has softened, about 3 minutes.

Steps:
- In a medium bowl, season the chicken with the salt and pepper and toss to coat.
- In a large Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat until shimmering. Working in batches, cook the chicken, turning the pieces halfway through, until lightly browned on all sides, 5-6 minutes per batch. If the pot seems dry, add more olive oil as needed between batches. Remove the chicken from the pot and set aside.
- Reduce the heat to medium and add the butter. Once melted, add the shallots. Cook for 2-3 minutes, until translucent. Add the garlic and cook for 1-2 minutes, until fragrant. Add the flour, stirring to coat the aromatics. Cook for 1-2 minutes, until the flour is just cooked but has not yet started to brown.
- Pour the white wine into the pot to deglaze, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom. Add the chicken stock and season with salt. Increase the heat to medium-high and bring to a boil. Once boiling, stir in the fettuccine and cook for 7 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent the pasta from sticking to the bottom of the pot or clumping together.
- Add the chicken and heavy cream, stirring to combine. Add the Parmesan cheese, a couple tablespoons at a time, stirring well between each addition to ensure the cheese melts smoothly. Stir in the spinach and cook for 1-2 minutes, until wilted. Season with salt and pepper to taste. The soup will thicken slightly as it cools.
- Ladle into bowls and serve warm, garnished with more pepper and Parmesan cheese.
- Enjoy!
