CHICKEN FETTUCCINE ALFREDO



Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo image

We created this sauce with milk because most families have milk in the fridge. If you want to use heavy cream, then just eliminate the flour and replace the milk with heavy cream. Feel free to use any cut of pasta you have. Extra sauce: if you like extra sauce like we do, just cook less pasta. Our photos show it with extra sauce and less pasta.

Categories     Main Course

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 pound fettuccine ( or pasta of choice, cooked to package instructions)
1 pound boneless skinless chicken ((breast or thighs), cut into bite sized pieces)
4 Tablespoons butter ((divided))
4 cloves garlic (, minced (or 2 teaspoons garlic powder))
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 cups milk
1/4 teaspoon dried herbs ((basil, oregano, thyme, etc.))
1/2 teaspoon dried mustard powder
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon salt (, or to taste)
1/2 teaspoon fresh cracked black pepper
(optional) extra grated cheese to serve on top

Steps:

  • Cook pasta to al dente according to package instructions, drain and set aside. Reserve some pasta water for thinning out the alfredo sauce if needed later
  • Heat a sauce pan on medium-high heat. Melt 2 Tablespoons of butter. Add chicken and sear until all sides are brown and cooked, about 5-8 minutes depending on the thickness of your chicken pieces.
  • Remove chicken from pan. Add remaining 2 Tablespoons of butter, then add garlic and cook translucent and fragrant (about 1 minute).
  • Whisk in flour and continue whisking to remove large clumps.
  • Slowly whisk in the milk. Whisking often to make sure flour lumps are smooth, bring sauce to a low boil. Then reduce heat to low.
  • Add dried herbs, mustard powder, parmesan, salt and pepper. Continue whisking until sauce is smooth and begins to thicken.
  • Add the pasta and the chicken in the alfredo sauce. Stir to coat everything with the sauce. Add a little pasta water to thin out the sauce if needed. Add additional salt, pepper or cheese on top if needed.

CREAMY CHICKEN ALFREDO



Creamy Chicken Alfredo image

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.

Categories     Main Dish Recipes     Pasta     Chicken

Time 40m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 pounds skinless, boneless chicken breasts, cut into chunks
salt and ground black pepper to taste
2 (16 ounce) packages thin spaghetti
4 (15 ounce) jars Alfredo sauce
2 tablespoons Italian seasoning
2 tablespoons garlic powder
2 tablespoons chopped onion
2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil
2 tablespoons salt
2 tablespoons ground black pepper
1 tablespoon onion powder
½ tablespoon cayenne pepper, or to taste
1 ½ cups shredded Parmesan cheese
2 cups chopped broccoli

Steps:

  • Season chicken with salt and pepper. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook until no longer pink in the centers and juices run clear, 7 to 10 minutes.
  • Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook thin spaghetti in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, add Alfredo sauce to the chicken along with Italian seasoning, garlic powder, onion, basil, salt, black pepper, onion powder, and cayenne. Bring to a slight boil; stir in Parmesan cheese. Cook mixture until cheese is melted and you are able to lift a spoon out of the sauce without cheese hanging onto it, 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Place a steamer insert into a saucepan and fill with water to just below the bottom of the steamer. Bring water to a boil. Add broccoli, cover, and steam until tender, 2 to 6 minutes. Add broccoli to sauce.
  • Drain cooked pasta. Scoop into individual serving bowls and pour sauce on top.

CHICKEN FETTUCCINE ALFREDO



Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo image

Classic and easy to make, this version of Alfredo doesn't use flour to thicken the sauce. Instead, it relies on a slight simmer and a heavy dose of cheese.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
12 ounces fettuccine
Olive oil, for tossing
12 ounces boneless, skinless chicken breast (about 2)
1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter
2 cups heavy cream
2 pinches freshly grated nutmeg
1 1/2 cups freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil, and salt generously. Add the pasta and cook according to package directions until al dente (tender but still slightly firm). Drain and toss with a splash of oil.
  • Meanwhile, slice the chicken into 1/4-inch-thick strips, and lay them on a plate or a sheet of waxed paper. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add 2 tablespoons of the butter. When the butter melts, raise the heat to medium-high and add the chicken in 1 layer. Cook, without moving the pieces, until the underside has browned, 1 to 2 minutes. Flip the pieces, and cook until browned and cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes more. Transfer the chicken to a medium bowl.
  • Reduce the heat to medium. Add the remaining 6 tablespoons butter. Scrape the bottom of the skillet with a wooden spoon to release any browned bits. When the butter has mostly melted, whisk in the cream and nutmeg and bring to a simmer, then cook for 2 minutes. Lower the heat to keep the sauce just warm.
  • Whisk the Parmigiano-Reggiano into the sauce. Add the chicken and cooked pasta and toss well. Season with salt and pepper. Serve hot in heated bowls.
