Joker Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 I have one that tastes good but looks bad, so I usually end up serving a refrigerated brand (which everyone also likes). I'm curious what else is out there. I have no problem with other sauces but this one eludes me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6packofun Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 I tend to make my own, but for jar sauce, Classico's Asiago Romano Alfredo is really good. (Even the light version is good!) I think all of the jarred alfredo sauces look kind of odd, too, but they are fine once tossed with the pasta. They've gotten much better tasting, IMO.

6packofun Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 This one is not made the traditional way, but is very good: http://allrecipes.com/recipe/quick-and-easy-alfredo-sauce/ Otherwise, I don't use a recipe. Make a roux with equal parts butter and flour, add garlic, then add half and half and some pepper. Once thick, remove from heat and add the cheese! (I use Asiago and Parmesan) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

justasque Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 This link has a recipe similar to how I make it - with butter, cream, parmesan, and parsley. *NOT* a healthy choice, but oh, so yummy! Nothing else is quite the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chelli Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 Here is my alfredo recipe. I make it with chicken, but you can ignore the chicken part and just make the sauce. It's really fast, easy,and delicious! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's really fast, easy,and delicious! Your recipe looks great but it seems that you are only cooking the chicken for about 20 minutes total. Is that enough to cook the chicken all the way through?

Chelli Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 Your recipe looks great but it seems that you are only cooking the chicken for about 20 minutes total. Is that enough to cook the chicken all the way through? You cut the chicken breasts in half so they are thin. You pan cook them first in some olive oil, then finish them off in the oven. They have been fully cooked every time we've eaten them. HTH. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pippen Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 We like this Bowtie Chicken Alfredo recipe from The Pioneer Woman. The sauce seems thing, so I double it and cook it down longer. Also add more garlic. http://thepioneerwoman.com/cooking/2012/12/bowtie-chicken-alfredo/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbmamaz Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 my moms alfredo was very simple - you melt butter in the pasta pan and put the pasta back in it. you mix sour cream and cream and an egg yolk well, then mix that in to the pasta, over low heat (to make sure the egg yolk cooks) and add fresh grated cheese (locatelli was her fave) and fresh ground pepper. its not a sauce as much as a coating . . .
