Ingredients

1 package (16 oz) Rao’s^® Fettuccine Pasta
1 jar (15 oz) Rao’s^® Homemade Alfredo Sauce
1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breast, thinly sliced
3 cups broccoli florets
2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
1 tsp kosher salt
½ tsp freshly ground black pepper
¼ cup freshly grated Parmigiano Reggiano, plus more for serving
2 tbsp chopped fresh Italian parsley
1 tsp finely grated lemon zest

Directions

Bring a large pot of generously salted water to a boil. Cook Rao’s^® Fettuccine Pasta according to package directions. During the last minute of cooking, add the broccoli florets to the pasta water. Reserve ½ cup pasta water, then drain.
Meanwhile, season the chicken with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken in an even layer and cook until golden brown and cooked through, about 4 to 5 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
Reduce heat to medium. Pour Rao’s^® Homemade Alfredo Sauce into the same skillet and bring to a gentle simmer.
Add the cooked Rao’s^® Fettuccine Pasta and broccoli to the skillet, tossing to coat. Add reserved pasta water a little at a time as needed until the sauce reaches a silky consistency.
Return the chicken to the skillet and gently toss to combine. Stir in the Parmigiano Reggiano.
Remove from heat and finish with lemon zest and fresh parsley.
Divide among serving bowls and garnish with additional Parmigiano Reggiano and freshly cracked black pepper before serving.
