For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of nutmeg to the Alfredo sauce. If you don't have fettuccine, linguine or spaghetti work well as substitutes. Feel free to experiment with other vegetables such as mushrooms, spinach, or asparagus. Ensure the cream cheese is softened before melting for a smoother sauce. Adjust the amount of milk to achieve your preferred sauce consistency.

01 Step
Recipe View Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a rolling boil. Add the fettuccine pasta and cook according to package directions, about 8-10 minutes, or until al dente. Reserve about 1/2 cup of pasta water before draining. (10 minutes)
02 Step
Recipe View While the pasta is cooking, in a large skillet or saucepan over low heat, melt the softened cream cheese and butter together. Stir continuously until smooth and fully combined. (3 minutes)
03 Step
Recipe View Gradually whisk in the milk, ensuring a smooth and creamy consistency. Season with garlic powder, salt, and pepper to taste. Increase the heat to medium-low and simmer gently for about 3 minutes, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens slightly. (3 minutes)
04 Step
Recipe View Gently fold in the cooked chicken, broccoli florets, julienned zucchini, and chopped red bell pepper into the Alfredo sauce. Cook for approximately 3 minutes over medium heat, then reduce heat to low and simmer for an additional 5 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender-crisp and heated through. If the sauce becomes too thick, add a splash of the reserved pasta water to reach your desired consistency. (8 minutes)
