This Alfredo dish is a light version of a creamy classic Italian-style dish! Add saut?ed onions, garlic, and lightly cooked broccoli, and you have created a terrific dish! I sometimes substitute peas for broccoli.
Ingredients
- 1 onion, chopped
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 2 teaspoons vegetable oil
- 2 cups skim milk
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
- ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 16 ounces dry fettuccine pasta
- 1 (16 ounce) package frozen broccoli florets
Directions
Step 1
In a medium saucepan, heat oil over medium heat. Add onion and garlic, and saut? until golden brown.
Step 2
In a small saucepan, stir together milk, chicken broth, flour, salt, and pepper over low heat until smooth and thick. Stir into onion mixture. Continue to cook over medium-low heat, frequently stirring, until sauce is thick. Stir in Parmesan cheese.
Step 3
Meanwhile, cook pasta in boiling water. Add broccoli to pasta for the last several minutes of cooking. Continue cooking until pasta is al dente.
Step 4
Drain pasta and vegetables, and transfer to a large bowl. Toss with sauce. Serve.
