directions

  • Dice chicken into bite size cubes. Sauté in large skillet with one tsp of the butter. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside, but keep warm.
  • Cook broccoli and then drain well. Set aside, but keep warm.
  • Using skillet that the chicken was cooked in, melt the remaining butter, add heavy cream, garlic and pepper. Constantly whisking and not allowing it to stick to the bottom of pan, set to medium heat(do not boil) until the sauce is reduced and thickened. Keep whisking and stirring until the butter and cream combine. If they separate, it's not done yet.
  • Once the sauce is thickened, add parmesan to further thicken.
  • Combine sauce, broccoli, and chicken. Heat through, and serve over noodles or chopped cooked cauliflower.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I live in Michigan. I work as an accountant and software engineer. My favorite cookbook is Betty Crockers New Cookbook and an old one by Hallmark called holiday cooking. I love to eat as much as I love to cook. However, I have become decidely a better nutritional cook than before. I don't just cook to eat. I cook to eat delicious "healthy" meals. I am also an exercise addict, to help combat when I do eat a dish full of cream and cheese. Well not the cheese because I am alergic to that as well as the cream! So I take a lot of great recipes on Zaar and doctor them up to meet my healthy standard. One of these days I should make them public, but... thats a lot of work.
