Ingredients
- 4 tablespoon butter
- 1 small yellow onion chopped
- 4 garlic cloves minced
- ¼ cup all-purpose flour
- 4 cups chicken broth regular or low-sodium
- ½ cup heavy cream
- 1-1 ½ cups milk
- 4 oz fettuccine pasta broken into 2-inch pieces
- 2 cups shredded cooked chicken
- ½-3/4 cup grated parmesan more for garnish
- ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg optional
- ½-1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes optional
- ½ tsp salt more as desired
- ½ teaspoon black pepper more as desired
Instructions
- Add butter to a large skillet on medium-high heat. Once melted, sauté onion until translucent, about 3 minutes. Add garlic and sauté another minute. Sprinkle in the flour and stir and coat the vegetables. Once the mixture starts to brown, after about 2 minutes, carefully stir in the broth, heavy cream and 1 cup of the milk.
- Once the mixture comes to a boil, lower the heat to medium and add the fettuccini. Cook, stirring often, until the pasta is al dente.
- Fold in the chicken, parmesan cheese and seasonings. Taste for balance of flavors. Adjust with more seasonings if you'd like or add milk or water if you'd like to thin down the consistency.
