How to Make Alfredo Fettuccine With Chicken And Broccoli
- Cook fettuccine according to package directions. Reserve 1 cup of pasta water before draining.
- While pasta cooks, heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove chicken from skillet and set aside.
- Add broccoli florets to the skillet and cook for 3-5 minutes, until tender-crisp.
- Reduce heat to medium. Stir in Alfredo sauce, cream cheese, and Parmesan cheese. Cook, stirring constantly, until sauce is smooth and creamy.
- Add cooked chicken back to the skillet. Stir in cooked fettuccine and a little pasta water (1/4 cup at a time) until desired consistency is reached.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve immediately, garnished with extra Parmesan cheese and fresh parsley (optional).
