Method

  • Cook chicken breasts (I sauteed mine with a little olive oil and salt and pepper) and set aside. Cook pasta while cooking the chicken and set aside.
  • In a sauce pan, melt butter.
  • Add flour and stir in with butter, cook for 1 minute.
  • Whisk in milk, salt and pepper, garlic powder, lemon juice, and wine. Bring to a boil, constantly whisking. Reduce the heat and simmer for about 5 more minutes. Sauce should thicken.
  • In a large saute pan, add pasta, chicken, and any other desired additions.
  • Heat pan on medium heat.
  • Add alfredo sauce and toss with pasta.
  • Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and additional salt and pepper (if needed) and serve!Notes: This recipe made more sauce than I really needed, but I liked having extra. This way, you can add as much sauce as you prefer!
