~ savory chicken, broccoli & fettuccine skillet ~
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 ~
-
Step 1Cook 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.
-
Step 2Once 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.
-
Step 3Drain 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!

Step 4My troops loved this dish, already requests to make again.
