CHICKEN ALFREDO BAKE

Steps:

• Prepare pasta per package directions, to the al dente stage. (Pasta will cook further in the oven, so do not overcook.)
• While pasta is cooking, melt butter in large saucepan or dutch oven on stove top over medium heat. Once melted, stir in the flour and whisk. Allow to cook for 2-3 minutes.
• Add the garlic, cream, garlic salt (if using, see Notes below), salt, pepper and 1 cup of the Parmesan cheese. Stir to combine and melt cheese.

DUMP AND BAKE CHICKEN ALFREDO PASTA CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
• In a large baking dish, stir together uncooked pasta, Alfredo sauce, chicken stock, chicken and garlic. Cover tightly with aluminum foil and bake for 30 minutes.
• Uncover; give the pasta a good stir. At this point you should check the pasta to make sure that it is al dente (firm but with a tender bite). I have had good luck with the 30-minute cook time; however, some readers have noted that it required about 10 or 15 minutes longer. If it's still too hard after 30 minutes, just cover the dish and return to the oven until pasta is al dente. Then move on to the next step.
• Sprinkle mozzarella over the top. Bake uncovered for 8-10 more minutes (or until cheese is melted and pasta is tender).
• Garnish with freshly grated Parmesan or fresh chopped herbs, if desired.

CHICKEN FETTUCCINE ALFREDO

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to a boil, and salt generously. Add the pasta and cook according to package directions until al dente (tender but still slightly firm). Drain and toss with a splash of oil.
• Meanwhile, slice the chicken into 1/4-inch-thick strips, and lay them on a plate or a sheet of waxed paper. Season with salt and pepper.
• Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add 2 tablespoons of the butter. When the butter melts, raise the heat to medium-high and add the chicken in 1 layer. Cook, without moving the pieces, until the underside has browned, 1 to 2 minutes. Flip the pieces, and cook until browned and cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes more. Transfer the chicken to a medium bowl.
• Reduce the heat to medium. Add the remaining 6 tablespoons butter. Scrape the bottom of the skillet with a wooden spoon to release any browned bits. When the butter has mostly melted, whisk in the cream and nutmeg and bring to a simmer, then cook for 2 minutes. Lower the heat to keep the sauce just warm.
• Whisk the Parmigiano-Reggiano into the sauce. Add the chicken and cooked pasta and toss well. Season with salt and pepper. Serve hot in heated bowls.

CHICKEN ALFREDO BAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Coat a 9x13 baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
• Add the butter to a large nonstick saucepan, over medium-low heat; whisk until butter has melted. Add in garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
• Slowly whisk in the chicken broth and half-n-half. Stir in the garlic powder, Italian seasoning, kosher salt, pepper, and crushed red pepper flakes.
• Add in the pasta and bring to a boil. (It will look like a ton of liquid with little pasta, but don't worry, the pasta will absorb a lot of it as it simmers.)
• Reduce heat to a gentle bubbly simmer and cook for about 12-15 minutes until pasta is al dente, stirring every 5 minutes or so to prevent sticking and bubbling over.
• Turn off the heat and stir in the chicken, broccoli, and 1 cup parmesan cheese until combined and well coated.
• Pour half of the pasta mixture into the prepared baking dish.
• Sprinkle evenly with 1 cup mozzarella cheese.
• Layer the remaining half of the pasta evenly on top.
• Sprinkle evenly with the remaining 1 cup of mozzarella and 1 cup Parmesan.
• Cover with foil and transfer to the oven for 10-15 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
• Remove foil and place under the broiler for 5 minutes until golden (watch it carefully, to make sure it doesn't burn.)
• Sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley, serve, and enjoy!
• NOTE: Avoid pre-grated packaged Parmesan since it won't melt properly and the dish will be overly salty.
