Chicken & Brocolli Alfredo
- 3 boneless skinless chicken breasts, grilled & chopped (I used my Foreman Grill)
- 2 cups roasted broccoli florets
- 8 ounces fettuccine pasta
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons flour
- 1 cup fat-free low-sodium chicken broth
- 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1/4 cup skim milk
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 1 pinch ground nutmeg
- 3/4 cup fresh grated parmesan cheese
- 1) Boil noodles, drain and set aside.
- 2) In medium sauce pan, heat evoo over medium-low heat. Add garlic & cook till golden. Whisk in flour till smooth. Gradually whisk in chicken broth, Greek yogurt, milk, pepper, & nutmeg. Bring to low boil, stirring constantly. Lower heat & simmer till mixture thickens. Stir in 1/2 cup Parmesian cheese.
- 3) Add cooked chicken & brocolli to sauce, followed my cooked pasta. Toss to combine & serve with remaining Parmesian cheese.
- *Note: On the George Foreman grill, the chicken breasts take 8-10 minutes, depending on thickness. Make sure to cook meat thoroughly, not even a hint of pink in the middle.
- **Note: I usually start making the sauce while the noodles are boiling so they don't wind up cooling while waiting on the sauce to finish.
- ***Note: I've made this recipe with broiled brocolli and it turned out great.
