🕰️ A Brief History

Alfredo sauce was born in Rome in the early 1900s, when Chef Alfredo di Lelio created a simple sauce of butter and Parmesan cheese to please his wife, who had lost her appetite after giving birth. The dish became world-famous after Hollywood actors Douglas Fairbanks and Mary Pickford tasted it on their honeymoon in Italy.

Over the years, American chefs added cream, chicken, and even baked variations — creating what we now know as the creamy, cheesy, irresistible Chicken Alfredo loved worldwide.

🍗 Ingredients (Serves 4–6)

For the Pasta Bake:

12 oz (340 g) fettuccine or penne pasta
2 cups cooked chicken (rotisserie or leftover, shredded)
2 cups heavy cream (or half-and-half for lighter version)
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
3 tbsp butter
3 cloves garlic, minced
½ tsp salt
¼ tsp black pepper
¼ tsp nutmeg (optional, adds warmth)
½ tsp Italian seasoning or parsley flakes

For the Topping:

½ cup shredded mozzarella
2 tbsp grated Parmesan
1 tbsp chopped parsley

🍳 Method / Instructions

Step 1: Cook the Pasta

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
Add pasta and cook until just al dente (1–2 minutes less than package instructions).
Drain and toss lightly with butter to prevent sticking.

Step 2: Make the Quick Alfredo Sauce

In a large skillet, melt butter over medium heat.
Add minced garlic; sauté until fragrant (about 30 seconds).
Pour in heavy cream and season with salt, pepper, nutmeg, and Italian seasoning.
Stir and let simmer for 3–4 minutes until slightly thickened.
Add Parmesan cheese and whisk until creamy.

💡 Chef’s Tip: Do not boil the sauce — gentle heat keeps it silky and smooth.

Step 3: Combine

Add the cooked pasta and shredded chicken directly into the sauce.
Toss gently until everything is coated.
Add ½ cup of mozzarella and stir through — it will melt into the sauce, creating extra creaminess.

Step 4: Bake

Transfer the mixture into a lightly greased baking dish.
Sprinkle the top with the remaining mozzarella and Parmesan.
Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 15–20 minutes, until golden and bubbling.

Step 5: Rest & Garnish

Remove from oven and let rest for 5 minutes. Sprinkle with chopped parsley for color and freshness.
