Pasta

Alfredo Sauce

Method

Cooking the Pasta

  1. 1

    Boil the Pasta

    In a large pot, bring water to a boil and add 1 teaspoon of salt. Add the fettuccine pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente, usually about 8-10 minutes. Drain and set aside.

Grilling the Chicken

  1. 2

    Prepare the Chicken

    While the pasta is cooking, preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Rub the boneless, skinless chicken breasts with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, 1 teaspoon of salt, 1 teaspoon of black pepper, and 1 teaspoon of garlic powder.

  2. 3

    Grill the Chicken

    Place the seasoned chicken breasts on the hot grill. Cook for about 6-7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Remove from grill and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

Making the Alfredo Sauce

  1. 4

    Prepare the Sauce

    In a saucepan, melt 4 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add 2 minced garlic cloves and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.

  2. 5

    Add Cream and Cheese

    Pour in 1 cup of heavy cream, and bring to a gentle simmer. Gradually whisk in 1 cup of grated Parmesan cheese until melted and smooth. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

Combining Ingredients

  1. 6

    Combine Pasta and Sauce

    Add the drained fettuccine pasta to the Alfredo sauce, tossing to coat evenly.

  2. 7

    Add Chicken

    Slice the grilled chicken breasts and place them on top of the pasta. Toss gently to combine.

Serving

  1. 8

    Garnish and Serve

    Serve the Kids Grilled Chicken Alfredo warm, garnished with 2 tablespoons of chopped fresh parsley. Enjoy!
