I have tried a lot of different sauces over the years, but this is by far a family and friends favorite. I am always being asked to make this. I hope you all enjoy it as much as we have. This sauce reheats very well and won't separate like take-out sauces do.

Blue Ribbon Recipe

This Chicken Alfredo is comforting and satisfying. Shredding a store-bought rotisserie chicken is an easy shortcut. It's a time-saver not having to cook the chicken. The shredded chicken is coated in a homemade Alfredo sauce that is thick, creamy, rich, and buttery. It does reheat nicely, so if there are leftovers they'll be great for lunch the next day.
