Garlic Chicken Spaghetti

My family loves spaghetti, but I get tired of a meat and marinara sauce.  So, I decided to change it up about a year ago and this is what I came up with.  I'm sure someone sometime has done something like this, but we really like it and I can promise I never had spaghetti like this before!

You will need:
2 packages of spaghetti(I used quinoa spaghetti)
2 lbs chicken breast, cubed
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 medium onion, chopped
olive oil
2 cans of Alfredo sauce(I make my own so that it is dairy free-recipe coming soon!)

Saute the onion, garlic, and chicken in a medium skillet in olive oil(just enough to coat the bottom of the pan).
Meanwhile cook the spaghetti in stock pan.  Once the spaghetti is done drain and return to pan.  The chicken mixture should be done by now, so pour it onto the spaghetti as well as the Alfredo sauce.
Now stir until the sauce warms up.  Serve topped with parmesan cheese!  Enjoy!  It is really yummy.  My kids all love it and nobody has found an onion to complain so shh don't tell them!

  25. My daughter is tired of chicken but my husband buys it a lot. She loves alfredo sauce so this might work. Funny thing tonight I made fettucini alfredo and bought provolone cheese by accident. The house smelled of it and the kids said it taste like someone got sick. I thought it was because it was a different brand when i was grating it but didn't realize the store put the provolone nest to the chunks of parmesan cheese

  29. I like that the alfredo sauce is added at the end. My kids probably wouldn't like all the garlic, but I would. I could keep sauce out for them and add the rest to the garlic mix
