Ingredients Needed for this Baked Chicken Alfredo

Chicken Breast– I chose boneless skinless breasts, but thighs are a great option, too.

Four Cheese Alfredo Sauce– I just bought store brand, choose what you like (or flavor you like).

Fettuccine Noodles– you will need 8 oz. (which is half a box). Any noodle will do here, too.

Chicken Broth– I like to opt for low sodium broth. Regular or even vegetable broth will work. If you don’t have it, make it quickly with some water and chicken bouillon cubes.

Garlic– I like to add fresh garlic to pretty much everything. It’s great for you and adds flavor. Don’t have it? Just up the garlic powder or you can use jarred stuff as well.

Italian Seasoning– Just sprinkle some in. You can also just use dried basil or oregano.

Garlic & Onion Powder– Just a little bit of each for some added flavor.

Parmesan Cheese– This flavors the sauce and gives it that lovely texture we all like in Alfredo sauce!

Mozzarella Cheese– Top the entire dish off with some mozzarella cheese for an extra layer of goodness.
