directions

1. Cook fettuccine according to package directions.

3. Combine mayonnaise, milk, cheese, basil, pepper & paprika. Add to the vegetables in the fry pan, then add the chicken. Stir constantly & heat over medium-low heat until thoroughly heated.
4. Drain pasta & return it to the pot. Add the vegetable mixture. Mix well and serve. I like to serve it with a nice salad and garlic bread.
