Bowtie Alfredo Chicken
This recipe is one from Allen's family. It is for sure one of my favorite recipes! Ingredients needed to make this recipe:
1/2 cube Butter
Flour
16 oz Heavy Whipping Cream
Shredded Parmesan Cheese
2 tsp Salt
Pepper
2 Chicken Breasts
Italian Seasonings
Oil
1 lb Bowtie Noodles
1. Start by putting your chicken in a bag. Pour some oil into the bag with a LOT of Italian seasonings. Move everything around inside the bag to get the chicken fully coated.
2. Cook your chicken. I like to BBQ it but you can use and oven or stove if you need to. Chop up chicken into small squares.
3. Boil your water for your noodles. Put a little bit of oil into the water to help the noodles from sticking. Once your water comes to a boil, pour in your noodles. Let it boil for 12-15 minutes and then drain the water.
4. Get out a large sauce pan or medium size pot. Start making your rue. To make a rue you melt your butter and add flour to thicken it. I normally use about 4 tablespoons of flour per 1/2 cube of butter. Your rue is important because this is your thickening agent for your Alfredo sauce. If you do not do this step then your sauce will not thicken up.
5. Add in your whipping cream and make sure to continually keep stirring. The Alfredo sauce will burn if you don't stir continually. Keep stirring until the sauce thickens.
6. Add in about a 1/3 of the 6 oz container of shredded Parmesan cheese. **At this point if your sauce is a little too thick, then just add a little bit of milk.
7. Add a little bit of pepper and then add your salt. The key to good Alfredo sauce is a LOT of salt. Try a little bit of the sauce and add more salt if needed.
8. Pour the noodles, chicken, and sauce into a bowl and stir well. Serve on separate plates and add some garlic bread for a side. YUMMILICIOUS!
