Chicken Spaghetti with Garlic Alfredo Sauce
There’s nothing better than a thick and creamy Alfredo sauce over pasta, throw in a little chicken and you are set. The freshly diced tomatoes and basil add a great layer of flavor and summer freshness to this dish. I toasted a baguette to go with the pasta and it was perfect for cleaning up that extra sauce on the plate. You could also combine the pasta with the sauce and the chicken and make a casserole. Any way you dish it up you will love this!
