Cook the Pasta: Bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Add pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente, about 8-10 minutes. Drain and set aside.

Sauté the Garlic and Chicken: In a large skillet over medium heat, add olive oil. Once shimmering, add minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes. Add diced chicken, season with salt and pepper, and cook until browned, about 6-8 minutes.

Create the Creamy Sauce: Pour in cream and chicken broth, stirring to combine. Bring to a gentle simmer and cook until sauce thickens, about 4-5 minutes.

Combine Pasta and Sauce: Add pasta to the skillet and toss gently to coat in the sauce. Mix for 2-3 minutes until sauce clings to pasta.

Add Parmesan and Seasoning: Sprinkle in Parmesan cheese and desired spices, stirring until cheese melts and integrates into dish.

Serve Warm and Garnish: Remove from heat, let cool slightly, then serve warm garnished with fresh herbs if desired.
