Easy Chicken Alfredo is a simple dinner recipe for any occasion. I love this creamy indulgent sauce. This pasta is the ultimate Italian comfort food.
Ingredients
Chicken
- 1 lb chicken breast
- 2 Tablespoons olive oil
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
Alfredo Sauce
- 4 Tablespoons butter
- 1 medium shallot, minced
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 1 pint heavy cream
- 1 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 lb fettuccine noodles, cooked according to package
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Rub the olive oil, salt, and pepper all over the chicken breasts. Bake for 30-40 minutes, or until the juices of the chicken run clear.
- While the chicken is baking, prepare the noodles according to the package.
- In a large skillet melt 4 Tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Toss in the shallot, garlic, salt and pepper. Cook for 2 minutes. Stir constantly so the garlic does not burn. Pour in a pint of heavy cream. Turn the heat up to medium-high and bring everything to a simmer. Turn the heat back down to low and add in the Parmesan cheese. Once the cheese has melted toss the fettuccine noodles all in the cheese sauce.
- Top the fettuccine with the baked chicken and serve with more Parmesan cheese.
