Number Of Ingredients 13

1 lb | 500 g boneless skinless chicken thighs, ((or breasts))
Salt and pepper, (to season)
2 tbsp olive oil, (divided)
1 onion, (diced)
4 cloves garlic, (minced (or 1 tablespoon minced garlic))
1/2 cup (125 ml) dry white wine, ((optional))
8 oz (250 g) brown mushrooms, (sliced)
2 cups (500 ml) chicken broth, (or stock)
1 1/2 cups (375 ml) heavy cream, divided ((thickened cream, light cream, evaporated milk can also be used))
Extra salt and pepper, (to taste)
8 oz (250 g) dry pasta, (penne or fettuccini)
1 1/2 cups freshly grated parmesan cheese
Fresh chopped parsley, (to garnish)

Steps:

  • Season chicken thighs with salt and pepper.
  • Heat half of the oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the chicken thighs and sear on both sides until golden brown and cooked through. Remove chicken and set aside.
  • Add the remaining oil in the pot. Fry onion until transparent, stirring occasionally (about 2 minutes). Sauté the garlic until fragrant (30 seconds), then add in the white wine and allow to reduce to half (about 4-5 minutes). Add the mushrooms and cook for about a minute, while stirring occasionally.
  • Pour in broth and 1 cup of cream (or evaporated milk); season with salt and pepper. Bring to a gentle simmer then add the pasta. Mix well, reduce the heat to a slow simmer while stirring occasionally, until pasta is al dente (about 15 minutes).
  • Stir in the parmesan cheese until it melts through the sauce. Remove from heat immediately and slowly add in 1/4-1/2 cup remaining cream if sauce it too thick for your liking. Adjust salt and pepper to your taste.
  • Slice the chicken into strips and stir through the pasta. Garnish with fresh parsley and extra parmesan, if desired

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.

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.
