This was a really tasty Alfredo Sauce. I served it over Garlic Fettuccine noodles, and really enjoyed it. I am not sure why it has "chicken" in the title since the ingredients do not include chicken, nor do the instructions suggest it can be served over baked chicken or such. Nonetheless, it was very tasty served with fettuccine noodles. Thanks, tastetester #2. Made for Spring 2010 Pick-A-Chef.
