My well stocked pantry & freezer always gives me many options for a tasty dish at the last minute, when undecided on dinner. I threw this dish together on a whim with what I had and it was so, so good! Daughter and son went back for seconds and gave me 2 thumbs up! Daughter already has a dish stashed away to take to work tomorrow. LOL Enjoy!

How To Make ~ savory chicken, broccoli & fettuccine skillet ~

  • 1
    Cook pasta al dente. Do not rinse. While pasta is cooking, in a large skillet - ( I used my deep chicken fryer skillet or could use a dutch oven.) - brown chicken, onion and garlic in butter until chicken is no longer pink. Stir occasionally.

    Once chicken is cooked and onion tender, add chicken broth, soups, pepper, red pepper if using, onion and garlic powder. Stir to combine. Stir in the broccoli and simmer 5 - 10 minutes. Stir in the cheese until melted.
  • 3
    Drain pasta well and add to the chicken mixture. Heat through good and serve hot! A sprinkle of fresh Parmesan cheese would be great as well!
