Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups cooked chicken breast shredded or cubed
  • 4 cups broccoli florets fresh
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • ½ cup cream cheese softened
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt to taste
  • Pepper to taste
  • 1 teaspoon dried Italian herbs
  • ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes optional

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Steam broccoli florets for about 5 minutes until tender-crisp. Set aside.
  3. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant and golden.
  4. Pour in heavy cream and cream cheese, stirring frequently until the cream cheese melts into a smooth sauce.
  5. Mix in grated Parmesan cheese, stirring until fully melted and the sauce thickens slightly.
  6. Add salt, pepper, dried Italian herbs, and optional red pepper flakes to the sauce.
  7. In a large baking dish, combine cooked chicken and steamed broccoli until evenly distributed.
  8. Pour Alfredo sauce over the chicken and broccoli, gently stirring to coat everything well.
  9. Generously sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese over the mixture.
  10. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, until cheese is bubbling and golden brown.
  11. Let the dish rest for a few minutes to allow flavors to meld before serving.

Notes
