Daddy’s Feingold-Friendly Alfredo Recipe

December 29th, 2007

Here’s the recipe I promised. I expected to post this much sooner, but we moved in with the In-Laws over the holidays, so everything was up in the air for a while.

Daddy’s Alfredo Dinner

ingredients

1 lb pasta (we like rotini)
1-2 chicken breasts cut up into 1 inch pieces
one good sized stalk of brocoli choped up into small pieces
about 1 cup mushrooms cut up
1-2 cloves of garlic

sauce:
2 Tbsp sweet butter melted
1 cup heavy cream, warmed
3/4 c parmesan cheese (fresh grated is best but from the can will work also)
salt and pepper to taste

~cook pasta and brocolli together in a large pot, drain and return to pot

~cook chicken and garlic together, add in mushrooms when the chicken is almost done.

~add all sauce ingredients together in a medium sauce pan over medium heat, mix sauce with a fine wire wisk.

~add chicken and mushrooms to sauce and serve over pasta.

We’re still working out how to store and reheat for best results with leftovers, if anyone has any suggestions I would *love* to hear about it!
