Chicken alfredo with angel hair pasta and a side of steamed broccoli

Ingredients

  • Chicken breasts
  • Angel hair pasta
  • 4T butter
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 1/2 cup freshly grated parmesan
  • 1 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • Seasoning for chicken: 1t old bay, 1t italian seasoning, 1/2t paprika, 1/4t salt, 1/4tpepper

Method

  1. 1

    For the sauce*: In a skillet, melt butter down and then add garlic. Allow the garlic and butter to cook for about 5 minutes (at medium-low heat). Add 1 cup of heavy cream and increase heat to medium. Allow to simmer for about 5 minutes. Reduce heat to low and add 1 1/2 cup of parmesan and remaining 1/2 cup heavy cream. Continue mixing until cheese has melted and sauce has thickened.

  2. 2

    For the chicken*: (I like to fillet chicken breasts in half and then use a meat tenderizer to flatten the breasts out so that they cook more evenly) Coat breasts with oil and then sprinkle spice mixture on. Using a cast iron pan, bring the pan to medium heat and coat bottom of the pan with oil. Cook chicken breasts in cast iron pan.

  3. 3

    Cook angel hair pasta.

  4. 4

    Combine sauce with pasta, top with sliced chicken breasts.
