Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season chicken strips with salt and black pepper, then sauté for 5 to 7 minutes until golden and cooked through. Remove and keep warm.
Lower heat to medium. Add butter and minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.
Pour in heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer. Stir in Parmesan cheese and nutmeg if using, whisking until smooth and thickened, about 3 to 4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
Return cooked chicken to the skillet and toss to coat evenly with the Alfredo sauce.
Add zucchini noodles and gently toss for 2 to 3 minutes until tender but crisp, avoiding overcooking.
Plate immediately, garnished with fresh parsley and additional Parmesan if desired.
