Chicken & Broccoli Alfredo
There’s nothing better than a traditional Alfredo sauce! Unless it can be made with less fat & calories! If you try this recipe you’ll make it a new family favorite!
Ingredients:
- 1 lb. fettuccine noodles, cooked according to package directions
- 1 rotisserie chicken, meat removed & torn or cut into bite-sized pieces
- 1 head fresh organic broccoli florets (reserve stalk & stems for another use) or 1 – 12 oz. bag of frozen organic broccoli florets
- 2 T. water
- 1 c. Alfredo Sauce
Instructions:
- Cook the fettuccine while preparing the sauce so the noodles are still warm when ready to toss with the other ingredients.
- Prepare broccoli by placing florets in a microwave-safe bowl with 2 tablespoons water. Microwave on high until crisp-tender. Cooking time will vary depending on individual microwave ovens, so test after 2 minutes & adjust cooking times accordingly. When finished, drain to remove excess water & set aside.
- Add chicken, broccoli & cooked fettuccine noodles to a large serving bowl. Add the sauce to the bowl & gently toss until thoroughly combined. Top with chopped parsley & more freshly grated Parmesan cheese.
- Serve immediately.
