- 1 cup butter 2 cubes
- 4 Tbsp. cream cheese
- 2 pints heavy cream
- 2 tsp. garlic powder
- 1/4-1/2 tsp salt - depending on taste
- 1/8-1/4 tsp pepper - depending on taste
- 1 1/3 cup Parmesan cheese freshly grated
- 2 large chicken breasts - cooked and cut in strips or cubes.
- 2 cups fresh mushrooms sliced ~ optional sauteed in a small amount of olive oil.
- 12 oz Fettuccine noodles - gluten-free if necessary.
In a large skillet melt butter. Add cream cheese and whisk when melted.
Pour in the cream, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Whisk then stir while the sauce simmers 15 minutes over low heat.
Add cooked chicken and sauteed mushrooms, simmer 5 minutes.
Turn off heat and add grated Parmesan cheese, stir well.
Serve over hot fettuccine noodles. Garnish with additional freshly grated parmesan cheese if desired.
Note: I use leftover chicken for this recipe, such as Grilled Lemon Chicken or Seasoned Chicken Breast.
**Another great reason to keep leftovers on hand in the freezer.
