What is Alfredo Sauce?

Alfredo sauce is a creamy white sauce made with Parmesan cheese, butter, and cream. It is typically served over pasta and some people, like me, like chicken or shrimp.

What Pasta do you use with Alfredo sauce?

This chicken alfredo pasta can be made with any of your favorite pastas. I use whatever I have on hand including the spiral noodles, fettuccini noodles, and penne pasta and they all work well.

If you are wanting to keep things low carb then be sure to try this sauce with Zoodles. If you are looking for an amazing low carb Alfredo dish, make Spaghetti Squash Alfredo with shrimp and Zoodles with Alfredo Sauce. They are both amazing dishes, but are low carb and perfect if you are wanting to cut back on your carbs.

How do you thicken Alfredo sauce?

When I am making alfredo sauce, the sauce will almost always thicken on its own. As it cooks, the alfredo sauce will thicken and become the right consistency. If you want it to thicken faster, you can add more cheese.

There are a few different ways that you can thicken your Alfredo sauce. One way is to add some flour to the sauce and stir until it is well combined. Another way is to use some cornstarch mixed with a little bit of water. You can also use a roux, which is made from equal parts of butter and flour.

How do I thin out Alfredo Sauce?

If you find your alfredo sauce to be to thick it is easy to thin out. All you have to do is add a little heavy cream and whisk vigorously. Only add a little bit of the heavy cream at a time and every time you add more cream whisk vigorously. Keep doing this until your sauce is the proper consistency.

How to Store

If you have leftover Alfredo sauce, you can store it in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 3 days. You can also freeze the sauce for up to 2 months. To thaw, place the sauce in the fridge overnight or place it in a bowl and microwave until it is heated through.

What is the best way to reheat Alfredo sauce?

The best way to reheat Alfredo sauce is by putting it in a microwave-safe bowl and microwaving it for 30-60 seconds. You can also reheat it on the stove by heating it over low heat until it is warmed through.

What can you serve with Chicken Alfredo?

Some of my favorite sides to serve with chicken Alfredo are garlic bread or biscuits, a simple green salad, and some roasted asparagus, honey garlic roasted carrots . However, you can really serve this dish with any of your favorite sides. If you are looking for something a little bit different, try serving it with some cheesy Brussel Sprouts. They are a delicious and healthy side that pairs perfectly with this creamy chicken Alfredo dish.

How to Make Chicken Alfredo Pasta

Cut the chicken breast into, bite sized pieces. Saute with 2 tablespoons butter and garlic on medium low heat until fully cooked and set to the side.

Start cooking your pasta according to the package.

While pasta is cooking it is time to start making your sauce.

Melt butter and cream cheese in a sauce pan over medium heat. The cream cheese might look a bit strange, but stir it till you have it as smooth as you can get it.

Pour in the whipping cream and turn the heat to medium-high.

Whisk together until butter and cream have combined and until the sauce bubbles slightly.

Add Parmesan cheese and garlic powder and stir until everything is mixed well. Turn off the heat, sauce will thicken as it cools a little.
