EASY CHICKEN ALFREDO



Easy Chicken Alfredo image

This recipe was actually made up by a quadriplegic guy that I used to care for when I was a private duty nurse. He would sit in his wheelchair in the kitchen and dictate every thing I was to do (even though I knew how), so that he felt like he was doing it all.

Provided by Miracle Miriam

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 lb boneless chicken breast
2 (4 7/8 ounce) boxes alfredo noodles mix
1 (16 ounce) bag frozen chopped broccoli

Steps:

  • Cut up chicken breasts into bite sized chunks and saute in a little oil or butter until cooked through.
  • While chicken is cooking, prepare the alfredo noodles in a large dutch oven, following package directions.
  • Steam the frozen broccoli in another pan using a steamer, or cook it in a pan until just done.** (Steaming is better for retaining nutrients.).
  • When all three are done, add the chicken and broccoli to the alfredo noodles.
  • Mix well and serve with some fresh French bread from the deli.
  • **Another thing you can do to steam the broccoli is to place it in a metal colander, and place the colander resting inside the dutch oven over the cooking noodles with a lid over the top. Convenient, eh?

Provided by jkm.11.18.

Categories     Chicken Breast

Time 55m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 tablespoons butter
1 pint whipping cream
3 -4 cups shredded parmesan cheese
3 -4 garlic cloves, diced
1 1/4 teaspoons oregano
1/2 teaspoon thyme
1/4 teaspoon basil
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground pepper (eyeball it)
2 -3 cooked chicken breasts, sliced into small pieces (or in a pinch I've used the pre-cooked grilled chicken you can buy at the grocery store doesn't real)
1 (16 ounce) package fettuccine pasta, cooked according to directions on package

Steps:

  • In a medium saucepan or a skillet, melt butter at low heat.
  • Add garlic, simmer until brown.
  • Add cream, stir until butter and cream no longer separate.
  • Stir in cheese with a whisk until melted.
  • Add in the spices.
  • Continue to cook at low to medium heat for about 25 minutes, stirring frequently. Do not allow mixture to boil.
  • Combine with chicken and pasta and serve.
  • Can garnish with some chopped parsley, and shredded Parmesan cheese.
  • For cooking the chicken you might want to marinate it a little before cooking it to give it some more flavor. I usually do mine in a little lemon juice, with salt and pepper, maybe a little garlic... depends on my mood! Stick it all in a gallon sized Ziploc bag, and make sure to coat the chicken well, and let it marinate for at least 30 minutes Can grill, broil, or even pan fry if you want.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients. The better the ingredients, the better the dish will taste. Use fresh chicken, heavy cream, and Parmesan cheese.
  • Cook the chicken thoroughly. Chicken should be cooked to an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit. Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the chicken is cooked through.
  • Don't overcook the sauce. Alfredo sauce should be cooked until it is thickened and creamy, but it should not be overcooked. Overcooked sauce will be too thick and gloopy.
  • Serve the dish immediately. Alfredo sauce is best served immediately after it is made. The sauce will thicken as it sits, so it is important to serve it right away.
  • Garnish the dish with fresh herbs. Fresh herbs, such as basil, parsley, or chives, will add a pop of color and flavor to the dish.

Conclusion:

Chicken Alfredo is a classic dish that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. With a few simple tips, you can make a delicious Chicken Alfredo that will impress your family and friends.
