One-Skillet Chicken Alfredo Pasta

Instructions

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 pounds skinless, boneless chicken breasts

• Salt & pepper, to taste

• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter

• 1 teaspoon minced garlic

• 4 cups chicken broth, preferably low-sodium

• 1 lb penne rigate or ziti

• 1 1/2 cups heavy cream or half-and-half, warmed

• 1 cup freshly grated Parmesan, plus more for serving

• 1/4 cup chopped fresh at-leaf parsley (optional)

• Add Ons: 3 Cup Lightly cooked broccoli Florets

Cut the chicken breasts into 1-inch pieces. Melt the butter in a skillet over med-high heat. Add the chicken, sauté until nicely browned on the outside, but still a bit pink inside, about 4 min. Remove the chicken and set aside. Do not clean the pan! Those brown bits on the bottom of the pan are going to add avor to the sauce. Add the garlic to the pan and sauté over med. heat 30 seconds. Turn the heat to high, add the chicken broth, and scrape the bottom of the pan to loosen up all of those delicious caramelized bits. Bring to a simmer, lower to med. heat, and simmer for 5 minutes. Add the pasta, stir well, and simmer until the pasta starts to soften, about 8 minutes. Stir in the warm cream and the browned chicken with any juices that have accumulated on the plate. Cover and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the pasta is tender, most of the liquid has been absorbed, and the chicken is cooked through, about 4 min. Stir in the Parmesan until well incorporated, and adjust the seasonings. Transfer the mixture to a serving bowl and sprinkle with the parsley, if desired. Serve hot and pass extra Parmesan at the table.
