- Add four cups of water to a large pot and add three teaspoons of of kosher salt. Cook the pasta according to the directions on the package to the al dente stage. Before draining, reserve one cup of pasta water. Drain the pasta and set the drained pasta and reserved pasta water aside.
- While the pasta is cooking, cut up the chicken into bite-size pieces. Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add two tablespoons of butter and when the butter has melted, add the chicken in a single layer. Cook the chicken for one to two minutes and flip it over. Cook on the second side for another one to two minutes. Use a pancake turner and remove the chicken from the pan and set it aside.
- Add the remaining butter and when it has melted, add the heavy cream. Stir, making sure to scrape up any of the browned chicken bits in the pan. Let the cream simmer for about two minutes to start thickening it up. Add the remaining one-teaspoon salt, the pepper, one cup of the parmesan cheese, and pesto. Stir to combine, and when the cheese has melted, remove the pan from the heat.
- Add the pasta and chicken and about ½ cup of the reserved pasta water and stir to combine. If the sauce seems too thick, add additional pasta water, about a tablespoon at a time.
