Chicken Alfredo with Broccoli

1 T. oil

2 chicken breasts, cubed*

1 t. salt

1/2 t. pepper

3 cloves garlic, minced

2 T. flour

1 c. chicken broth

1 c. milk

1/2 t. salt

1/4 t. pepper

2 c. chopped broccoli

8 oz. sliced mushrooms, fresh or canned, drained, optional

2 c. cooked pasta, your choice, I used cavatoppi or bowtie

1/4 c. Parmesan cheese, optional

Heat oil in skillet. Add chicken. Season with salt and pepper. Cook 5-8 minutes until no longer pink. Remove chicken from skillet and set aside. Add garlic and saute for 1 minute over medium heat. Sprinkle flour over garlic and slowly add chicken broth. Stir to avoid lumps. Add in milk and stir. Allow to boil to thicken sauce. Season wth salt and pepper. Add broccoli and mushrooms and stir until cooked. Remove from heat. Add cooked chicken, pasta, and parmeasan cheese. Serve with Caesar salad, top with more parmesan if desired. Yummy!

*I used Perdue grilled chicken strips and skipped the step of cooking the chicken.
