Microwave Chicken Alfredo Food

MICROWAVE FETTUCCINE ALFREDO

Steps:

• Cook fettuccine according to package directions. Meanwhile, in a small microwave-safe bowl, combine the cream and cream cheese. Cover and microwave at 50% power for 2 minutes; stir in the Parmesan cheese until smooth. Stir in salt if desired and pepper. Drain fettuccine; toss with sauce.

MICROWAVE CHICKEN FETTUCINE ALFREDO PASTA BAKE

Steps:

• In a 4-qt microwave-safe dish add the olive oil, salt, and water. Break the fettuccine noodles in half and place in dish. Microwave uncovered on HIGH in 5 minute increments. Stir after every 5 minutes. Begin checking for doneness around the 20-minute mark. The pasta will probably absorb all the water. If there is still additional water when it's done cooking, drain. Pour the alfredo sauce into a medium-sized bowl. Drain, rinse, and break up the can of chicken. Add the chicken to the alfredo sauce. Add the garlic to the sauce. Stir until the chicken and garlic are completely mixed. Pour the sauce mixture over the cooked fettuccine and mix until it covers all the noodles. Sprinkle the cheese over the top of the pasta. Microwave for 3-5 minutes, until cheesy is completely melted. Serve immediately.

EASY CHICKEN ALFREDO

Steps:

• Cut up chicken breasts into bite sized chunks and saute in a little oil or butter until cooked through.
• While chicken is cooking, prepare the alfredo noodles in a large dutch oven, following package directions.
• Steam the frozen broccoli in another pan using a steamer, or cook it in a pan until just done.** (Steaming is better for retaining nutrients.).
• When all three are done, add the chicken and broccoli to the alfredo noodles.
• Mix well and serve with some fresh French bread from the deli.
• **Another thing you can do to steam the broccoli is to place it in a metal colander, and place the colander resting inside the dutch oven over the cooking noodles with a lid over the top. Convenient, eh?

CHICKEN ALFREDO

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a non-stick frying pan over a medium high heat. Add the chicken thighs and fry for around 10 mins, turning half way, until they are golden brown and cooked through. Set aside to cool a little, then use two forks to shred.
• Bring a pan of salted water to the boil and add the pasta, cook for 1 minute less that package instructions. Whilst the pasta is cooking, add the butter to the frying pan over a medium heat, scraping the bottom a little to get any of the browned bits. Tip in the cream along with the nutmeg and bring to a simmer. Add the chicken back to the pan.
• Once the pasta is cooked, use tongs to transfer the pasta straight from the water into the frying pan with the cream mixture. Sprinkle most of the parmesan over and use the tongs to toss it all together, adding a splash of the pasta water if it looks a little stiff. Season well, then tip into bowls. Top with the remaining parmesan, a scattering of parsley, and black pepper.
