CREAMY CHICKEN ALFREDO
I learned how to make creamy chicken Alfredo from my dad who has always been an incredible cook and amazing teacher. Chicken Alfredo was always my favorite. A lot of the recipes I see that are worthwhile are too much work because you have to make your own sauce, and those that don't have you make your own have no flavor. This recipe shows you how to take plain, bland, store-made sauce and make it more than restaurant-worthy.

BASIL CHICKEN AND PASTA
This is a great quick meal; the chicken and sauce can be prepared in the time it takes to cook the pasta. You can add more cream or less pasta if you like it creamier. Try ziti or farfalle pasta to add even more variety to this recipe. The leftovers don't heat very well, so eat it all up the first time!

Tips:
- Use fresh ingredients: Fresh garlic and basil will give your pasta dish the best flavor. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but be sure to use half the amount.
- Cook the chicken until it is cooked through: Chicken breast is a lean protein that can easily dry out, so be sure to cook it until it is cooked through but still tender. You can check the chicken by inserting a meat thermometer into the thickest part of the breast. The chicken is cooked when the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Don't overcook the pasta: Pasta is best when it is cooked al dente, or slightly firm to the bite. Be sure to cook the pasta according to the package directions.
- Use a good quality Alfredo sauce: There are many different brands of Alfredo sauce available, so be sure to choose one that you like the taste of. You can also make your own Alfredo sauce if you prefer.
- Serve the pasta immediately: Pasta is best when it is served hot, so be sure to serve it immediately after it is cooked.
