- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup milk (whole or 2%)
- 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/4 tsp dried Italian seasoning
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
- 8 oz fettuccine or pasta of choice
- 2 cups shredded cooked rotisserie chicken
- Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish (optional)
- Cook pasta according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
- While pasta cooks, heat olive oil in a large skillet or saucepan over medium heat.
- Add minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant (do not brown).
- Pour in heavy cream and milk. Bring to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally. Do not boil.
- Reduce heat to low. Stir in Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning until the cheese is melted and the sauce is smooth.
- Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. If the sauce is too thick, add a splash more milk until desired consistency is reached.
- Add shredded rotisserie chicken to the Alfredo sauce and stir to coat, heating through for 2-3 minutes.
- Add the cooked and drained pasta to the skillet with the sauce and chicken. Toss to combine everything evenly.
- Serve immediately, garnished with fresh chopped parsley if desired, and extra Parmesan cheese.
Notes
- Using pre-cooked rotisserie chicken significantly cuts down on preparation time.
- Adjust the amount of milk to achieve your desired sauce consistency.
- Feel free to add other vegetables like broccoli or peas for added nutrition and flavor.
