Categories     Dinner

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

salt, to taste
8 oz penne pasta
2 cups broccoli floret
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cubed
pepper, to taste
¼ cup butter
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup heavy cream
1 teaspoon salt
⅛ teaspoon nutmeg
¼ teaspoon black pepper
1 ½ cups grated parmesan cheese, plus extra for garnish
red pepper flake, to garnish

Steps:

  • Bring a quart (950 ML) of water in a large pot to a boil over high heat, and salt to taste.
  • Cook pasta for 8 minutes, or until slightly underdone.
  • Add broccoli to pasta and simmer for 4 minutes with the lid on.
  • Strain the pasta and broccoli in a colander, and run cold water over to prevent the broccoli from over cooking.
  • Heat the olive oil in the pot over medium-high heat, and add the chicken. Season the chicken with season salt and pepper.
  • Once the chicken is cooked through, remove it from the pot and set aside.
  • Add the butter to the pot, and melt it. Once butter is fully melted, add in garlic and stir continuously for 10 seconds.
  • Add the heavy cream, salt, pepper, and nutmeg. Stir often, and cook until sauce starts to bubble slightly.
  • Once the sauce is bubbling and begins to cook down, add in Parmesan cheese and stir until the sauce thickens.
  • Add in the cooked chicken, pasta, and broccoli, and stir until fully combined.
  • Top with Parmesan cheese or red chili flakes.
  • Enjoy!

I followed the recipe exactly and the dish turned out great! The chicken was tender and juicy, and the broccoli was cooked perfectly. The Alfredo sauce was a little too thick for my taste, but that's an easy fix. Overall, this was a great recipe that
