Method
Pasta Preparation
Cook the Spaghetti
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the spaghetti and cook according to package directions until al dente, usually about 8-10 minutes. Drain and set aside.
Alfredo Sauce Preparation
Make the Alfredo Sauce
In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Stir in heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer. Gradually whisk in grated Parmesan cheese until melted and smooth. Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Keep warm on low heat.
Chicken Preparation
Prepare the Chicken
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Season the chicken breasts with olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Place on a baking sheet and roast in the oven for 25-30 minutes or until cooked through. Let rest for a few minutes before slicing.
Bacon Preparation
Cook the Bacon
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon strips until crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from skillet and drain on paper towels. Chop into small pieces.
Broccoli Preparation
Roast the Broccoli
Toss the broccoli florets with olive oil, salt, black pepper, and grated Parmesan. Spread on a baking sheet and roast in the oven (you can do this alongside the chicken) for about 15-20 minutes or until tender and slightly crispy.
Assembly
Combine and Serve
In a large serving bowl, combine the cooked spaghetti with the Alfredo sauce, mixing well. Top with sliced roasted chicken, crispy bacon, and Parmesan-roasted broccoli. Serve with garlic breadsticks on the side. Finish with freshly ground black pepper and additional Parmesan cheese if desired.
