Let’s make dinner! I love pasta, and I love love love easy dinner options.
Today I want to share the super simple way I make my chicken & broccoli fettuccine alfredo dish. It’s perfect for making a delicious dinner after a busy day of work or homemaking!
Here’s what you need:
- 1 can of alfredo sauce (I like the Prego brand in the home style alfredo flavor)
- Fettuccine noodles
- Frozen broccoli florets
- 4-5 thawed chicken tenders (or 2 small chicken breasts)
- Olive oil, salt, & pepper
I’ll also show you how I do my Italian bread, so for that you’ll want Italian seasonings, oil, and Italian bread.
We’ll start with the pasta dish. Preheat your oven to 350F.
You’re going to want to start to boil your pasta. I always add a dash of olive oil into my water so that it’s less likely to boil over. I do break my noodles in half to fit into the smaller pot.
While the noodles are boiling, I line a baking sheet with tin foil. Then, I cut up my chicken into bite-sized pieces and scatter on half of the baking sheet. Then I pour out half a pan’s worth of broken broccoli florets.
Drizzle olive oil over the chicken and broccoli, then salt and pepper. Put in the oven for 20-22 minutes.
When your noodles are done, use a strainer and run some cool water over them. Set aside.
Pour out your jar of sauce into a small pot and heat, on low, until your chicken and broccoli are done. Stir occasionally.
When you only have about 5-7 minutes left on your chicken and broccoli, cut your Italian bread into slices. Lay the pieces in a pan, drizzle olive oil over it, and sprinkle on Italian seasonings. Heat in the oven for about 4-5 minutes.
When everything is done, plate your food, starting with your noodles, adding sauce, then adding your chicken and broccoli, and then adding bread as a side! Enjoy!
