Homemade Chicken Alfredo Recipe
This sauce is so creamy! Did I say this is creamy?! This pasta dish is made with heavy cream, just like the Italians do it. You will see lots of alfredo recipes that are made with cream cheese, but honestly, heavy cream is where it’s at!

What type of pasta should you use?
Fettuccini is my pasta of choice when making home-made chicken alfredo, but you can play fast and loose with this. Linguini is also a great option and I won’t hold it against you of you choose to use penne.

You can use boxed or fresh pasta in this recipe.

What to serve with Chicken Alfredo
This chicken pasta recipe is a great pasta dish that can be served on it’s own, but if you are looking for some side dish ideas to go along side, you can’t go wrong with veggies. It’s also delicious with homemade garlic bread.
