My family went CRAZY over this meal. Hall of Fame! This is the kind of meal I love but I am not a teenager anymore so I can't get away with it very often. I made guilt-free so I don't feel guilty. Quite the contrary- I feel fantastic!!
lighter chicken cajun pasta with bacon (pass the peas, please)
3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts freshly grilled then sliced (seasoned with Pappy's)
1 bottle light alfredo sauce (I use Classico)
1 teaspoon cajun seasoning
1 tablespoon real bacon bits
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 teaspoon basil
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
hot, cooked pasta (I cook whole wheat for myself and tri-colored for the rest of the fam)
Pour sauce into a pan (I used a wok- I use mine for almost everything!), add everything listed except pasta. Warm until nice and bubbly. You might want to thin it down with a little milk. Serve over hot, cooked pasta. Serve with a salad or seamed veggies.
YOU'LL LOVE IT!
Oh how I wish my husband liked alfredo. I keep coming across this recipe and SOOO want to make it. Maybe I can call it a white sauce and he'd be less afraid....
ReplyDeleteDo it! The seasonings really disguise the bottled alfredo sauce. Just hide the jar and call it a white sauce, like you said. Never hurts to try! Just make a side dish he loves just in case. :)
