Creamy Chicken Spinach Alfredo

August 22, 2017 By: Skaal1 Comment

I love a great, hearty pasta and this Creamy Chicken Spinach Alfredo has everything! It’s coated in a thick cheese sauce that’s full of flavor but doesn’t overpower the dish. You will love this any night of the week! This cooks up nice and quick and is great way to use up any chicken you have sitting around.

1 lb penne pasta

4 tablespoons butter

2 cloves garlic, minced

4 tablespoons flour

2 cups milk

1 cup shredded mozzarella

1 cup grated parmesan

2 cups chicken, diced and cooked

2 cups chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed of liquid

Salt and pepper
