I highly recommend giving this delicious chicken alfredo recipe a try. This recipe is super simple to make and incredibly satisfying.

A dinner that the whole family will enjoy and it’s a perfect recipe dish for those romantic date nights. It’s the perfect showstopper meal and you can make this scrumptious tasty dish in under 35 minutes. It’s bold, rich, full of flavor, and just seasoned to excellence.
If you are a pasta lover- I highly recommend you give this dish a try and do not skip over it. The creamy rich alfredo sauce is made with butter, half & half or you can use heavy whipping cream, freshly grated parmesan and mozzarella cheese. Plus, we cannot forget to season the sauce to perfection. No one wants a plain Ol alfredo sauce, so add a few seasonings to make your sauce tasty. You want a nice rich sauce that is heavenly exquisite and scrumptious in the flavor department.
Flavorful chicken breast that is pan seared in olive oil & seasoned to perfection.
For this recipe I did use chicken breast, but feel free to use boneless skinless chicken thighs. Plus, Chicken thighs will give you a lot of good flavors as well. You can season the chicken however you prefer, but I used an Italian dressing to marinate my chicken. Allow the chicken to marinate at least 10 to 15 minutes so that it can soak up those wonderful flavors. After pan searing in olive oil, right before the chicken is done- I like to add a pinch of onion & herb seasoning and garlic & herb seasoning. I feel it gives an extra boost in the flavor department. The meat was so tender and delectable but do your best to not over the chicken. And if you do- that’s ok, it will not be the end of the world. If you’re not a fan of Italian dressing, just season the chicken with salt and pepper or you can use an all-purpose chicken seasoning as well. to give the chicken an added boost, finish it off with a small squeeze of fresh lemon juice. This recipe is so simple, and you can make adjustments as needed. Feel free to add your own spin to it.
This classic chicken alfredo recipe is so good. Poised with edge, and such inviting flavors this dish does not disappoints. You do not have to be a pro chef to make this dish. It’s a super simple recipe and a dish comes together super fast. Just make this a complete meal by tossing in a nice Ceasar or garden salad and butter garlic bread. It will make this dish even more super fulfilling and yummy.
