Chicken Broccoli Alfredo
This recipe takes this classic Italian dinner and makes it even easier to make.
This Chicken Broccoli Alfredo is out of this world. Alfredo sauce is known for its hearty, creamy flavor and its ability to completely transform chicken and pasta into a magical and unique dish. This recipe takes classic chicken Alfredo and makes it a little bit lighter, so you don't have to worry about counting calories.
From the Chef: When I first became interested in cooking, I would look for easy restaurant-style recipes I could make for dinner, and Chicken Alfredo was on that list. This version combines classic ingredients to make a simple dinner that any cook can tackle.

The instructions state to cook on Low for 1 hour or High for 3 hours after adding the broccoli etc, shouldn't this be the other way around "3 for Low 1 for High"?

Well, this recipe is four of my favorite food items-chicken, broccoli, alfredo, and pasta. I can't wait to make this for my family. We like to order alfredo when we eat out, but this meal will be a lot more affordable. Won't this be delicious with breadsticks?
