Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo

makes 4 servings

• Take two thawed chicken breast, using Shake and Bake, coat chicken. Put in a dish and cook in the oven for 20 to 30 min. or until no longer pink, obviously.

Boil a pot of water, cook Fettuccine

Alfredo:

• 4 Tbsp. butter
• 4 Tbsp. flour
• 2 cups milk
• 1/2 tsp. garlic powder
• 1/2 tsp. salt
• 4 Tbsp. parmesan cheese
• parsley flakes

Melt butter. Stir in flour until you have a nice paste. Slowly stir in milk. Cook and stir over medium heat until thick and bubbly. Stir in garlic salt and salt cook one more minuet. Remove from heat and stir in parmesan cheese. Divide pasta into four plates, pour Alfredo over pasta, cut up chicken and put over pasta and Alfredo. Sprinkle parsley on top. Easy as making mac and cheese but 100X better!

* if you have some rolls and want a quick way to take them to the next level, melt some butter and add the garlic powder. Spread lightly on top of your rolls. If you want to take them to the next NEXT level, put some cheese on top of that and bake in the oven with your chicken for 5 min. Works with homemade( put butter and cheese on before baking) and store bought rolls. Your family will appreciate the twist to regular dinner rolls!

• 1/3 cup teriyaki sauce (the one you used for the marinade)
