| Ya know, I would have sworn we had such a recipe in here, but I
couldn't find one. We have a dozen or more recipes with chicken
and broccoli in them but only one more that include pasta. I
didn't see any pasta in the broc/chic casseroles (note 1432).
Anyway, there is 1 with pasta, albeit lasagna instead of
fettucini.
1228.39, chicken and broccoli lasagna in parmesan custard.

| There were some recipes for "chicken, broccoli, and ziti" from
some of the restaurants around here in the Globe a couple weeks
ago.
I don't know if I still have the paper, but could check.

| I do it very often, but I never use recipes... you could try the
following:
fry in oil (about 2 sponfuls) 2 or more gloves of garlic, when cooked
but not brown add chicken breast, sliced thin and cook till done, add
some sliced mushrooms, cook till done, then add 1/2 cup whole milk and
a bit of butter and cover.
Cook spagetti and broccoly floweretts (I don't cook the broccoli in oil
because it absorbs too much oil and I am very concious of calories...)
till is done "al dente", about 6 to 8 minutes, drain well and add to the
chicken, add salt and pepper to taste and about 1/3 cup of parmesan cheese
let thicken the sauce for a few minutes and serve!
It is healthy, lean, and delicious, and takes takes about 15 minutes
from start to serve.
I hope it helps, Ana

This is what I do and its easy and delicious. Cook up some
chunks of chicken. You can stir fry some boneless, cook bone
in chicken and then de-bone, or heat up some leftover chicken.
Steam some either fresh or frozen broccoli. Cook Fettucine.
While fettucine is cooking, mix up a package of Knorr Alfredo
Sauce. Use skim milk and less margarine for a lower fat
version (its excellent this way). This sauce is out of this
world by the way.
Drain pasta, top with broccoli and chicken, spoon sauce over
the top and eat! I like to add mushrooms or whatever other
veggies I have in the house also.
