Ingredients

    6 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - cut into cubes 6 tablespoons butter, divided

    4 cloves garlic, minced, divided 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning 1 pound fettuccini pasta

    1 onion, diced

    1 (8 ounce) package sliced mushrooms

    1/3 cup all-purpose flour 1 tablespoon salt
