What I love about this chicken and broccoli alfredo recipe is that it had a great texture. I thought it would go great with penne but feel free to use another noodle if you prefer! The penne noodles are what I had on hand. I also loved the texture and creaminess of the mozzarella cheese, milk, and heavy cream. It’s a dairy-lovers dream! 4 servings Ingredients: 1/4 tsp. pepper 1/4 tsp. salt 1 1/4 cups shredded mozzarella cheese 1 cup reduced fat milk 1 cup heavy cream 4 cloves garlic 1 tbsp. extra virgin olive oil 1 tbsp. unsalted butter 8 oz. penne pasta 1 1/2 pounds chicken breasts 2 small crowns broccoli, roughly chopped
