  1. This was a quick fix that everyone loved. What I liked the best about this is the chicken didn't get lost in the sauce. I browned the chicken and before serving, cut it onto bite sized pieces and mixed it together with the fettuccini. I found it served up easy and displayed nicely.
     
  2. This was fantastic! Nice flavor, beautiful presentation. Just the right balance to the seasonings. Sauce was perfect. Thanks for a great recipe.
     
  3. Inez has done it again. I knew this one would be great as her reputation proceedes her. Once I see the Inez Willenborg band wagon loading, I have to jump on! Sauce was light and not overpowering as some fettuccini sauces are. We enjoyed the addition of the red pepper. Didn't change a thing, although added a bit of salt. Thanks for another fantastic meal, Inez!
     
  4. This is a great recipe! my noodles went all wrong and I would still give this recipe anything above a five if I could! Instead of testing the juices the way that the recipe says to though, I just cut the pieces in half the old-fasioned way. It was also kind of hard to strain and keep track of the noodles without burning the chicken, so maybe you should make the chicken and sauce first and make the noodles when you dont have to worry about the chicken. Chicken Alfredo is my favorite meal, and this was the best ive ever had!
     
  5. Made this for the family and they loved it. Just the right amount of spice to be interesting but not hot. The sauce was a bit thin so I added 1/2 tbs of corn starch to thicken it up. Will add this to my favorite list.

Tweaks

  1. Added some sauteed veggies and garlic bread as well! And the chicken was not re added to the creamy mixture.
     
  2. I was just a little disappointed with this. Maybe I was expecting it to taste a bit like Olive Garden's version:) It was tasty, but I probably should have added a little more cream. It was a tad thick. I cut the chicken up before cooking it, which helped it to cook a lot faster. I also cooked the onion & garlic in olive oil instead of butter. Yummy, but not outstanding
     
  3. I made this tonight and it was very good. I didn't see light cream in the store so I used 1 cup of heavy cream and 1/2 cup of 1% milk. Also, instead of seasoning my chicken with salt & pepper, I used garlic salt, garlic powder, onion powder and black pepper. Then, when it was time to add the minced onion and garlic I used a little less than called for. It was so good. I'm going to have to play around with the sauce because it didn't make nearly enough for us. I loved the addition of the red pepper flakes and my 1yr old and 2yr old cleaned their plates!
     
  4. I just finished making this. This is the creamiest, most flavorful alfredo I have ever had. I did substitute melted butter and milk for the cream b/c I only had a little bit on hand. To thicken the sauce I added a little cornstarch. I will defenitely be making this dish again. Thank you very much.
     
  5. I make a couple of changes to this. I use nutmeg instead of ginger. So much better!!! And, I normally use shrimp and also use fat free half/half to cut calories..

After DH and I moved away from the farm, and to the city...I haven't done as much cooking and very little canning. But I do come to Zaar and look for new recipes once in a while. I'm still cooking Zaar!! I like to play at Facebook, with my family and friends. A lot of my Zaar friends are there!! Yay! It's a good way to keep in touch. We travel more. We're looking at the European trips now. Hope to go in the springtime. I really want to see London, I think I lived there in a past life, I've been obsessed with it since I was 10 years old!!
