Restaurant-Style Chicken Scampi image

Coated chicken tenders tossed with hot cooked pasta, bell pepper, onion, and garlic in four cheese Alfredo sauce. This is a delicious, rich chicken scampi very similar to that served at a well known Italian restaurant chain. Perfect with a green salad with Italian-style salad dressing and breadsticks!

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 pound raw chicken tenders or strips
¼ cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons olive oil
1 (16 ounce) package spaghetti
1 teaspoon olive oil
1 green bell pepper, cut into 1/2 inch wide strips

1 onion, chopped
2 tablespoons chopped garlic
1 ½ cups four cheese Alfredo sauce

Steps:

Remove from skillet and place in a medium bowl; set aside.

  • Stir in Alfredo sauce, cover and heat for 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from heat and add to reserved pasta in pot, then add reserved cooking water and chicken. Toss to mix, pour into serving bowls and sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley.

I didn't have any white wine, so I used chicken broth instead. It turned out fine.

The sauce was a little too salty for my taste.
