This is a nice main dish to prepare. I did try to reduce some of the fat by using half n half in place of the whipping cream. I sauteed the chicken in a skillet and used a garlic pepper seasoning. I found the amount of mozzarella to be a bit too much for this dish and next time would probably reduce that the next time I make it. Thanks for a great family meal. :) Made for 123 Hit Wonders -
This is a very simple alfredo sauce to prepare. We used freshly grated cheeses but used only half the mozzarella called for. We used a Mrs. Dash type seasoning for the chicken and sauteed the pieces in olive oil before adding it to the sauce and pasta. Thanks for posting. :) -

This dish was creamy and garlicky and really what an alfredo dish should taste like! I did add some broccoli at the end of the fettucini boil and added it in to give a little color and hint of healthiness. I cut the chicken into really small chunks and sprinkled them with garlic powder as they cooked as well. It was definitely a very filling and fattening dish but it was very tasty. I won't make it often but when I do want an alfredo recipe...this will be the one I go to.
