Ingredients

  • 2 cups spinach, chopped
  • 1/2 cup artichoke hearts, chopped
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 tablespoon garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 8 oz fettuccine pasta
  • 2 cups broccoli florets
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1/2 cup mushrooms, sliced
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • 1 tablespoon fresh basil, chopped

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to prepare for the crispy Parmesan broccoli.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the broccoli florets with olive oil, a sprinkle of salt, pepper, and a generous amount of grated Parmesan. Toss until well-coated, then spread them in a single layer on a baking sheet and roast for about 20 minutes or until golden brown.
  3. While the broccoli is baking, cook the fettuccine pasta according to the package instructions, then drain and set aside.
  4. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. In a large skillet heated over medium flame, add olive oil and then the seasoned chicken. Cook for approximately 6-7 minutes on each side until golden brown.
  5. Remove the chicken from the skillet and let it rest. In the same skillet, add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant;
  6. Add the chopped spinach and artichoke hearts, followed by chicken broth and heavy cream. Stir and let it come to a gentle simmer.
  7. Reduce the heat to low. Incorporate grated Parmesan and shredded mozzarella into the sauce, stirring until melted and thickened.
  8. Slice the cooked chicken and add to the skillet along with the drained fettuccine, tossing gently to coat.
  9. For mushroom basil cream, melt butter in a small skillet over medium heat, sauté sliced mushrooms, then stir in heavy cream, simmer, and add chopped fresh basil, salt, and pepper.
  10. Serve the creamy chicken Alfredo with crispy Parmesan broccoli and drizzle with the mushroom basil cream.
