CHICKEN ALFREDO (W/CREAM CHEESE SAUCE)



Chicken Alfredo (W/Cream Cheese Sauce) image

This is a recipe I found a while back and have made a few embellishments on. Caution!!! Very rich!!! I use garden gourmet basil paste in all my recipes requiring basil. This stuff is amazing. If you can't find it sub fresh or dried basil. Just don't overdo it on the dried basil. I am not sure on the cook times yet and will edit that once I find out. The sauce can take some time to turn creamy
