Mama's Chicken and Shrimp Alfredo from Scratch image

Mom made this the other day and it rocked. It creates a ball and chain to the kitchen for awhile, but you could prepare some of this the day before and cut on the time. I like the parmesan mix with asiago, but you can use just plain old parmesan if you want.

1 lb boneless chicken breast
1 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon salt
