Super easy, Super simple, Alfredo sauce
We most often use a whole grain penne.
And sometimes we serve it over rice.
Asparagus was on sale today.
And that meant.. it was for DINNER!
RECIPE
INGREDIENTS
- Meat Options: Turkey Kielbasa sliced in rounds, cooked chicken-bite sized, or ham chunks
{Or skip the meat and call this a vegetarian dish!} - 1 Green Pepper: sliced in thin strips
- 1 Red Pepper: sliced in thin strips
- 1 Red Onion: halved and sliced in thin strips
- 1-2 Garlic Cloves: crushed
- pinch of Red Pepper Flakes
- 1-2 Teaspoons Basil Leaves: crushed in your hand
- 1 Can Chicken Broth or Veggie Broth
- 1 Cup Cream or Half & Half
- Parmesan Cheese
and
Pasta or Rice of choice
DIRECTIONS
Cook your meat option in a large skillet til mostly done. Drain on paper towel lined plate. Set aside. (For Kielbasa I do not use any oil in pan, and just cook til all sides are browned a bit.)
In same skillet on medium heat saute peppers and onions til they just lose their crispness, 3-4 minutes. Use additional canola oil if needed.
Add garlic, red pepper flakes, and basil and cook one minute longer.
Add chicken broth and cream and let simmer on medium low for 8-10 minutes. When the sauce begins to thicken, add meat option to the skillet and warm through. Then add cooked pasta to the skillet.
Serve with Parmesan.
YUMMY.
YUMMY.
