Description
A simple, complete meal cooked in a single pot featuring chicken, broccoli, and Alfredo sauce.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1 cup milk
- 8 ounces fettuccine pasta
- 1 cup fresh broccoli florets
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 cup Alfredo sauce (store-bought or homemade)
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Heat the olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat.
- Add the chicken pieces and cook until browned on all sides, about 5 minutes.
- Pour in the chicken broth and milk. Bring the liquid to a simmer.
- Add the fettuccine pasta to the pot. Stir well to prevent sticking.
- Reduce heat to medium-low, cover the pot, and cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Add the broccoli florets. Cover and cook for another 3 to 5 minutes, or until the pasta is tender and the broccoli is cooked through.
- Remove the pot from the heat. Stir in the Parmesan cheese and Alfredo sauce until the sauce thickens slightly.
- Season with salt and pepper. Serve immediately.
Notes
- Use pre-cut broccoli florets for faster preparation.
- If the sauce seems too thick, add a splash more milk or broth until you reach your desired consistency.
