Ingredients
Chicken
4boneless skinless chicken breasts, cubed into bite size pieces
Cube the chicken into bite sized pieces and add to a large bowl. Add the oregano, basil, onion powder, garlic powder, salt & pepper. Mix until the chicken is evenly coated.
In a large skillet or frying pan melt the butter and olive oil on medium high heat.
Add the seasoned chicken and sauté until cooked through, about 6-8 minutes.
While the chicken is cooking, bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the pasta al dente according to package directions.
When the chicken is cooked remove from the pan and set aside. Optional: wipe the pan clean with a paper towel.
Prepare the alfredo sauce in the same pan. On medium heat add the butter, milk and cream cheese. Stir or whisk until evenly melted.
Once melted, add the minced garlic, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt and pepper. Continue to stir/whisk until smooth.
Add the grated Parmesan cheese. Bring to a light simmer and continue to cook for about 5-8 minutes or until it starts to thicken.
Return the chicken to the pan and add in the cooked pasta. Stir gently to combine.
Pour into a 9” x 13” baking dish. Sprinkle with the shredded mozzarella cheese. Bake at 350°F until cheese melts, about 5-10 mins.
Top with parmesan cheese, basil and parsley. Serve and enjoy!
