Alfredo Sauce

My kids love any pasta in alfredo sauce. I tried this sauce with practically everything. Shrimps. Yum. Chicken breast strips. Yum. Pancetta. Yum. Bet even without  meat it will still be yum.

I thought to make it simple, why not post a recipe of the star itself?

Ingredients:
1/3 cup olive oil
4 cloves minced garlic
500-750 grams of whatever "meat" you would like to use
2/3 cup chicken broth
1/3 cup dry white whine
1 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup cream cheese
1/2 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
1/4 teaspoon crushed dried basil leaves
1/4 teaspoon crushed dried oregano leaves

Perfect sauce for 1 packet of pasta, spaghetti, linquini, fettucine, whatever you fancy.

Directions:
In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add garlic and reduce the heat to low. Cook garlic until tender, not brown!!!

Add whatever meat you want to add, shrimp, pancetta, chicken breast, tuna. Set the "meat" aside, leave the liquid in the skillet.

Add chicken broth and bring to a boil. Add wine and simmer for 3 minutes, stirring
constantly.

Reduce heat to low and add heavy cream and cream cheese. Continuously stir. Add cheese, stir until smooth. Cook until thickened. Add oregano and basil leave and 1/3 of "meat" to the sauce.
 
Take the pan off the heat.

Assemble:
Place your pasta in a serving bowl. Pour your sauce on top. Toss to coat pasta
completely. Add remaining "meat" on top and you have a start sauce you can make over and over and over again.

    I'm No Chef but I love food like it's no one's business.

    I didn't know anything about cooking... frying an egg used to be a nightmare.. until I was forced to learn more... I had my first born... that's when my gastronomic journey started...

    Join me in my food quest.
    Laugh at my embarrassing moments.
    Share my triumphs.

    And if you're brave enough ... cook with me (ooooh scary!), virtually that is, and have the most enjoyable time!

    Welcome aboard
    fellow foodies!
