Learn how to make this chicken broccoli garlic alfredo dinner in just 20 minutes using only a skillet! A super simple one pot meal! Great for weeknight meals when you don’t want a fuss but also when you want something a lot better than something from a box. 😉

What you’ll need:
1/2 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1″ pieces
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 (14.5 oz) can low sodium chicken broth
1 cup water
1 head broccoli, chopped or 2 cups frozen broccoli florets
8 ounces dry pasta (penne, ziti, mostaccioli, etc)
1 cup grated parmesan cheese
1/4 cup heavy cream or half and half
pinch of nutmeg

In a large skillet over medium-high heat, brown chicken in a bit of oil. When cooked through, add in garlic and saute until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add in chicken broth and water. Bring to a boil while scraping the bottom of the pan to release all the browned bits. When boiling, add in broccoli and pasta. Stir and cover. After 4-5 minutes, stir again to make sure pasta is not sticking. Replace cover and cook for another 15 minutes or until pasta is done and liquid is absorbed. Turn off heat and add in parmesan, cream and nutmeg. Stir to combine and to melt the cheese and then serve. Serves 4-5. Enjoy!!

    +Samar Masmoudi, because with the chicken broth and parmesan cheese, there
    is already 2400mg sodium in the entire dish. There is no need for more
    salt. 

  2. I Heart Recipes

    I love one pot meals. This looks delicious!

  3. Candice S.

    More skillet meals. Preferably low in fat but still delicious.

    Does anyone know how and where I can find heavy cream in Mexico? I tried
    making this, but I used the wrong type of cream and the sauce was sweet!
    And the parmesean clumped together. :(

  5. The Root Boy Cooks !

    Pat says he’ll try this – AND, he’s really not a big fan of pasta! Your
    warning about the nutmeg is to be heeded… I used to put it in béchamel
    sauce, but I’m not fond of that taste. Likely I used too much, though! It
    looks wonderful, Jason! BTW, I was talking to Melissa about you the other
    day and we both agree that your videos are professional and precise and
    that you choose good stuff! – roc

    pasta together. I know this is delicious!!

  20. yanely ravelo

  21. White Thunder BBQ

    This looks really good! This one pot meal thing seems like a difficult
    technique to master. I actually do a really nice beefy Spanish rice type
    thing in one pot. 

  22. Gardeninggirl1107

    My favorite! You are a genius – no boiling and draining, I love that! I’m
    making this next week for sure. Thank you so much :)
