Fettuccine Alfredo with Chicken

Fettuccine Alfredo with Chicken

Servings: 6 (if you want to make it for less, just cut it in half!)

(By The Way: Feel free to experiment according to your personal preferences)

Ingredients:

1 lb. fettuccine noodles
2 cups cut up boneless chicken pieces
1 stick butter
1 cup heavy whipping cream
2 cups shredded (or freshly grated) parmesan cheese
lemon pepper seasoning
salt (I recommend Jane's Krazy Mixed-Up Salt to take the place of both salt and pepper)
pepper
garlic salt

Chicken:

Cut up the chicken in bite-size pieces (whatever that means for you!).  Put in a pot with just enough water to cover the top of the chicken.  Add seasoning (lemon pepper seasoning, salt, pepper).  Bring to a boil then immediately bring heat to low and simmer for about 15-20 minutes.

Noodles:

Bring a pot of water to a boil, add noodles and let cook for 12-15 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Alfredo Sauce: (the best part!)

In a large skillet-type pan, melt butter on medium-low heat.  Add heavy whipping cream.  Add seasoning (salt, pepper, garlic salt).  Mix in cheese and stir to help it melt.

*Note: If you want more sauce than what that makes initially, just keep adding heavy whipping cream and cheese until you have the desired amount!

Wrapping It Up:

Once everything is cooked up, drain the noodles and chicken (you can save the yummy chicken broth this makes for another recipe!) and add them to the sauce.  Mix it around and serve!

*Note: Try some variations: without the Chicken; with Shrimp instead of Chicken.

Bon appetit!
