Chicken and Broccoli Alfredo

This is one of my favorite go to comfort foods.
Yes, I do know how to make my own Alfredo sauce...but sometimes it's easier to do a semi-homemade meal.

When reheating leftovers, warm in a saucepan with a splash of cream to keep it from being dry and clumpy.

Ingredients:
3-4 Chicken Breasts
1 Bunch broccoli
I box Fettuccine
I jar Alfredo sauce
Minced Garlic
Garlic Powder
Olive Oil

Directions:
1. Cut chicken into bite sized pieces
2. Cook chicken with a tablespoon or two of olive oil, seasoning with garlic powder
3. Warm alfredo sauce, adding minced garlic to taste
4. Cook broccoli for just a couple of minutes, until the color brightens
5. Cook pasta according to directions on box.
6. When all ingredients are cooked, combine all. Season to taste.
