This is my very first Italian dish that I learned how to cook from a friend years ago that I met in Texas. He was Italian and originally from New York. It has been over 20 years & it is my favorite Italian dish that I make. Now, I hardly ever measure this out and go by taste and looking at how thick my sauce is to determine how I...

Number Of Ingredients 14

FOR CHICKEN
4 medium chicken breasts, boneless and skinless, cut into strips or chicken tenders cut in pieces
1 to 2 tsp olive oil
2 - 3 tsp garlic salt
1 tsp dried parsley (i don't always add this)
FOR ALFREDO SAUCE
1/4 c butter
1 c sour cream
1/2 c light cream
1/4 c shredded parmesan cheese
1/4 c shredded romano cheese
salt and pepper to taste
FETTUCCINE
1 box fettuccine noodles

Steps:

  • 1. Wash your chicken off and then sprinkle the parsley on both sides of chicken. Place pan on stove over medium heat and add oil, when it is hot add the chicken. Then, spinkle your garlic salt on the chicken. Cook for 3 or 4 minutes on each side till cooked through. Make sure when you flip chicken to sprinkle garlic salt on the other side as well.
  • 2. Cook your Fettuccine according to directions on box. When it is al dente turn off heat and remove from burner.
  • 3. In another pan, place the 1/4 cup of butter in pan over medium heat and melt it down. Then add your sour cream and light cream. Stir until it is blended with the butter. Stir this constantly and do not let it boil or burn. Keep stirring and add the cheeses. As soon as it is all melted together and very hot remove from heat and immediately pour over the Fettuccine. Do not rinse your noodles as this causes the sauce not to stick as well. ---- This should take about 7 to 9 minutes.
  • 4. Drain the noodles and add the sauce immediately and then place the chicken on top. 6/1/15 -- I added some fresh diced tomato.
