~ Savory Chicken, Broccoli & Fettuccine Skillet ~ image

My well stocked pantry & freezer always gives me many options for a tasty dish at the last minute, when undecided on dinner. I threw this dish together on a whim with what I had and it was so, so good! Daughter and son went back for seconds and gave me 2 thumbs up! Daughter already has a dish stashed away to take to work...

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 14

10 oz fettuccine noodles, uncooked
1/4 c butter
2 1/2 lb boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into bite sized pieces
6 clove garlic, minced
1 medium onion, chopped
1 - 10 3/4 oz can, cream of chicken soup - cream of mushroom would be good too
1 - 14.5 oz can, cream of chicken soup
2 c chicken broth
1 tsp each - onion powder & garlic powder
24 oz frozen broccoli florets, thawed
1 tsp pepper
1 tsp red pepper flakes, optional
1 c velveeta shreds or more to taste
salt if needed

Steps:

  • 1. Cook pasta al dente. Do not rinse. While pasta is cooking, in a large skillet - ( I used my deep chicken fryer skillet or could use a dutch oven.) - brown chicken, onion and garlic in butter until chicken is no longer pink. Stir occasionally.
  • 2. Once chicken is cooked and onion tender, add chicken broth, soups, pepper, red pepper if using, onion and garlic powder. Stir to combine. Stir in the broccoli and simmer 5 - 10 minutes. Stir in the cheese until melted.
  • 3. Drain pasta well and add to the chicken mixture. Heat through good and serve hot! A sprinkle of fresh Parmesan cheese would be great as well!
  • 4. My troops loved this dish, already requests to make again.
