This chicken broccoli alfredo is a classic recipe!  It is creamy, cheesy, flavorful, and hearty.  This dish takes just 30 minutes to make.  Great for busy weeknights!

whole wheat penne pasta

garlic (minced)

chicken broth

milk

whole wheat flour

salt (adjust

¼ tsp black pepper

¼ tsp nutmeg (optional)

broccoli florets (steamed until tender-crisp)

First, cook the whole wheat pasta according to the package instructions until al dente.  Drain and set aside.

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.  Add the chicken pieces and cook for 5 to 7 minutes until they are browned and cooked through. Remove the cooked chicken from the skillet and set aside.

In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and cook for about 30 seconds until fragrant.

Sprinkle the whole wheat flour over the garlic in the skillet and whisk it into the oil to create a roux.  Cook for 1 to 2 minutes, stirring constantly, until it becomes lightly golden.

Gradually pour in the chicken broth and milk, whisking constantly to avoid lumps.  Cook for 5 to 7 minutes, or until the sauce thickens.

Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese and continue to cook, stirring until the cheese is fully melted and the sauce is creamy.

Season the sauce with salt, black pepper, and nutmeg (if using).  Adjust the seasoning to your taste.

Add the cooked chicken pieces and steamed broccoli florets to the sauce.  Stir to combine and heat them through for a few minutes.

Add the cooked whole wheat pasta to the skillet and gently toss to coat the pasta with the Alfredo sauce and chicken and broccoli mixture.

Serve your healthy chicken broccoli alfredo with whole wheat pasta immediately.  Garnish with additional Parmesan cheese and fresh parsley if desired!

Dump and Bake Chicken Broccoli Alfredo Noodle Casserole Recipe

chicken,

broccoli florets

salted butter, melted

Italian seasoning (divided)

garlic powder (divided)

onion powder

Salt,

Black pepper,

Chili flakes,

dry short cut pasta or egg noodles

cream cheese, melted

heavy cream

parsley

Preheat Oven and Prepare Baking Dish

Preheat the oven to 425°F. Melt the butter in a 9&#215;13 inch baking dish with high sides to coat the bottom evenly.

Season Chicken

Add the cubed chicken to the baking dish. Sprinkle with 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning, 1 tablespoon garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and chili flakes according to your heat preference. Toss to coat the chicken evenly with the seasonings and butter.

Layer Pasta and Broccoli

Arrange the dry noodles over the chicken evenly, then distribute the chopped broccoli florets over the noodles. Pour 1 1/2 cups of water evenly over the layered ingredients. This water will hydrate the pasta during baking.

Prepare Alfredo Cream Sauce

In a separate bowl, mix the melted cream cheese with the heavy cream until smooth. Whisk in the milk and Parmesan cheese. Add additional Italian seasoning to taste to enhance flavor. Pour this creamy mixture evenly over the noodles and broccoli in the baking dish.

Add Cheese and Bake Covered

Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella or provolone cheese evenly on top. Add an extra sprinkle of garlic powder on the cheese for added flavor. Cover the dish with a lid or foil and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.

Bake Uncovered for Crispy Top

Remove the cover and continue baking for an additional 15-20 minutes or until the cheese on top is golden brown and crispy and the noodles on top start to crisp up.

Garnish and Serve

Remove from oven and let cool slightly. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley or basil. Scoop out portions and serve warm and enjoy your creamy, cheesy casserole!
