Chicken Alfredo

Shopping List

• 2 chicken breasts
• salt and pepper
• 2 teaspoon olive oil
• 8 ounces dry pasta
• 2 cups heavy cream
• 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter
• 1/2 to 3/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)

Instructions

1. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Brush with oil and then season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Grill 5 to 7 minutes on the first side and then flip the chicken over and grill for another 3 to 4 minutes, or until cooked through.
2. Cook pasta according to package directions.
3. Prepare the Alfredo sauce by combining the cream and butter in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Do not let the mixture come to a boil, but heat until small bubbles begin to form. Add the Parmesan cheese and whisk quickly. Add the garlic powder and continue to whisk. The sauce will thicken after a minute or two.
4. Cut the chicken breasts into strips. Serve by placing half the pasta on each plate, then topping it with sauce and a sliced chicken breast.
