Mmmmm. Let's see what we have for dinner tonight. (Open fridge) Not really much in there. SMH. But something has to be made...
Chicken Alfredo !!!
Ingredients:
Alfredo sauce 15 oz.
Bow tie pasta 12 oz.
2 Chicken breasts
Adobo
Pepper
Italian seasoning
2 slices of Toast
Shredded cheese
olive oil
*season to taste*
You can make this in whatever order your lil heart desires, but for me it was easier this way..
I made sure I had all the ingredients that I needed on the counter ready for me to use. First, I made the chicken. My chicken breasts were pretty big therefore I only needed 2. I used adobo, pepper, and Italian seasoning, just enough to season the chicken to my taste. I don't have a grill or a grill pan to grill the chicken as I would have preferred. You can if you wish to do so. So what I did was cook it in the pan with water about 1/8 deep to steam cook the chicken (keeps it moist as well). Put the top on the pan and let it cook on a medium setting (on my stove I usually set it to the number 5). While the chicken was cooking, I started the pasta. In a medium size pot I boiled about 2-3 cups of water. Once the water started to boiled I lowered to a #5 setting and I put the pasta inside and sprinkled a very little bit of olive oil. Usually for me, once the pasta is al dente, the chicken is done as well. Then, I pour the pasta into a strainer. I put the chicken on a cutting board and cut it in small strips. With the same pot I made the pasta in I pour the alfredo sauce. As soon as it warmed up I added the chicken and pasta. Mixed it all together and took a little sample. I am usually satisfied with the seasoning, but sometimes I would have to add a little something.
To add something to the plate I had also made cheese toast. First, preheated the oven to 350. I cut a few slices of Italian bread (feel free to use whatever bread you have). Drizzled a little bit of olive oil, sprinkled little less than a handful of shredded cheese, sprinkled a little of Italian seasoning, then put it in the oven at for about 5 minutes.
Total time to make is 30-45 min. (depending on your stove)
Wala ! A delicious, quick, and easy meal to enjoy :)
