When I think of garlicy, creamy Alfredo sauce, it brings back memories of sitting at a café in Rome and carefully spooning up every drop. It’s a classic Italian favorite and a simple sauce to make. I decided to add chicken and basil to this classic pasta dish for an easy Italian dinner.

Add a washed, ready-to-eat salad with oil and vinegar dressing to complete this quick dinner.

HELPFUL HINTS

› You can use 6 crushed garlic cloves instead of minced garlic.

› You can use boneless, skinless chicken thighs instead of chicken breast.
