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.

CHICKEN ALFREDO



Chicken alfredo image

Our easy chicken alfredo pasta recipe is rich, creamy and the perfect antidote to hunger pangs. You're just two steps away from cheesy pasta perfection.

Provided by Elena Silcock

Categories     Dinner, Main course, Supper

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 tbsp olive oil
4 skinless boneless chicken thighs, cut in half
300g fettuccine, or tagliatelle
1 tbsp butter
200ml double cream
½ a nutmeg, grated
100g parmesan
parsley, chopped, to serve

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.

Tips:

  • Choose the right type of pasta. Any type of pasta can be used for Alfredo chicken supper, but some shapes, such as fettuccine, penne, and rotini, hold the sauce better than others.
  • Cook the pasta al dente. This means that the pasta should be cooked until it is tender but still has a slight bite to it. Overcooked pasta will be mushy and will not hold the sauce well.
  • Make sure the Alfredo sauce is thick enough. The sauce should be thick enough to coat the pasta and chicken without being too runny. If the sauce is too thin, it will not stick to the pasta and will make the dish watery.
  • Use high-quality ingredients. The better the ingredients, the better the dish will taste. Use fresh, organic ingredients whenever possible.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment. There are many different ways to make Alfredo chicken supper. Feel free to add your own favorite ingredients or try different variations of the recipe.

Conclusion:

Alfredo chicken supper is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for busy weeknights. It is a versatile dish that can be customized to your own taste preferences. With a few simple tips, you can make a delicious Alfredo chicken supper that your family and friends will love.
