Chicken
- 1 ½ lbs. Chicken Breast, Tenders or Thighs (Cut or Pounded Thin)
- 2 teaspoon - 1 tbsp. All-Purpose Seasoning Blend of Choice
- Dry Spice Options - Onion Powder, Garlic Powder, Smoked Paprika, oregano, basil and thyme
- Salt and Pepper
- 2 tsp. Butter

Buffalo Wild Wings Garlic Parmesan Alfredo Sauce
- ½-1 12oz Bottle Buffalo Wild Wing Garlic Parmesan Sauce
- 2 tbsp. Butter
- 1 cup Heavy Cream (8oz Container)
- 1 8oz Block Cream Cheese (Softened and Cubed)
- 1 cup Parmesan Cheese (Grated)
- Salt and Pepper
- 2 cups Dry Penne Pasta
- ½-1 cup Reserved Pasta Water
- 2 tbsp. Fresh Parsley (Chopped)
Season The Chicken
In a bowl add thin chicken breasts and season with an all purpose spice blend, salt, pepper and other spices of choice. Set aside. Marinate overnight is best, if you have the time.
Cook The Chicken and Garlic Alfredo Sauce
In a skillet on medium heat add the butter and oil. Cook the seasoned chicken in batches, remove, and set aside. Make sure the chicken is fully cooked.
Reduce the heat to low-medium add butter and heavy cream. Use a whisk to scrape the bottom to mix in all that good flavor.
Add the softened cubed cream cheese. Mix well until the sauce is warm and smooth.
Whisk in parmesan cheese, ½ cup reserved pasta water and ½ the bottle of the wing sauce (you can add the whole bottle if you prefer). Mix well until smooth.
Salt and pepper to taste. (Save about ½ cup of the sauce to drizzle onto the chicken later).
Remove the skillet from the heat and mix in the cooked penne pasta. Top with the cooked chicken breasts, drizzle the reserved sauce on each piece, and garnish with extra parmesan and chopped parsley. Enjoy.
