"My husband came up with this recipe, and it is one of the best things I have ever eaten. I can eat leftovers of this every day, and I hate leftovers. And it's so easy, it's silly."

I found a recipe for the Southwest seasoning at the culinary cafe site <http://www.culinarycafe.com/Sauces-Marinades/Southwest_Spice.html> and make my own! Then I added some chopped green chiles to the alfredo sauce. Yummy.

We make this dish frequently with a variation of Creole seasoning. It is very good if you blacken the chicken on the grill too. Quick and Good.
