This is the easiest recipe I have found for alfredo sauce. We almost always add some grilled chicken at the end. Leftover rotisserie chicken works well also as an add-in.

How To Make quick and easy alfredo sauce

Step 1

Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Whisk the flour into the melted butter until the mixture is smooth. Slowly beat the half and half into the sauce until completely incorporated. Stir the garlic, parsley, and Parmesan cheese into the sauce, whisking continually. Bring the sauce to a simmer; cook, stirring regularly, until the sauce has thickened, 4 to 5 minutes. Use immediately or refrigerate. You may need to thin the sauce out with more half and half or a bit of milk if you refrigerate it. Serve over hot alfredo noodles.
