Lemon, Broccoli and Chicken Alfredo

Cooking in the skillet (minus the lid for obvious reasons)
Ta-da!
Lemon, Broccoli and Chicken Alfredo
This is a favorite in the Pueblo household...even for the first born son. It serves 2, but can easily feed more, just add a little more of each thing. ;)


4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves or tenderloins
salt and pepper
1 Tbsp. olive oil
2 lemons
3 cups broccoli florets
1 15oz. jar of Alfredo sauce (I like Bertolli's Garlic Alfredo the best)
8 oz (or 1/2 a 16 oz pkg) of Fettuccine (I like Trader Joe's Organic Whole Wheat Fettuccine)

1. Prepare fettuccine according to pkg directions.
2. Meanwhile, in a large skillet, season chicken with salt and pepper and brown it on both sides. About 2 minutes on each side.
3. Slice lemons and add broccoli and lemon slices to the skillet. Cover; turn heat down to medium and cook for about 10 minutes or until chicken is done. I like to cook it at a slower speed for longer to allow the chicken and broccoli to really soak up the lemon flavor.
4. Put the chicken and broccoli onto the plates and dump the Alfredo sauce in the skillet to warm quickly.
5. Place the fettuccine on the plates and spoon Alfredo sauce over each item.
6. Garnish with lemon slices, and pepper, if desired. Mmmm...mmm.
