Nothing beats Fettucini Alfredo, except chicken-pasta-broccoli in a rich and creamy alfredo sauce. It’s classically delicious!
Chicken Mostaccioli Broccoli Bake
Ingredients
- 2¾ cups Mostaccioli or penne pasta, cooked per directions
- 3¼ (8 oz) packages frozen cut broccoli, cooked per directions
- Alfredo sauce (see below)
- 1 (8oz) bag pre-cooked chicken strips
- ½ cup shredded Swiss cheese

Alfredo Sauce
- ¼ cup butter

- Add the chicken strips to the Mostaccioli and broccoli. Pour alfredo sauce over the top and combine until well-coated.

- Sprinkle with fresh grated Parmesan cheese and serve.
Notes
Without the chicken, this recipe makes a great side dish. Smaller portions would reduce the calorie intake.
