Ingredients
  • 2-3 Large Bonless-Skinless Chicken Breasts Trimmed and cubed into bite sized pieces. (left over chicken cubed will work as well or left-over steak cubed into bite-sized pieces.
  • A little over 1/2 box Fettuccini, Linguini, or even spaghetti
  • 1 -2 16.5 oz jars of Francesco Rinaldi 3 cheese Alfredo Sauce, (or your favorite jarred alfredo sauce).
  • 1 Large Jar Large Green Olves with Pimento
  • 1 Large Can Pitted Ripe Black Oives
  • Grated Asiago Cheese About 1/4 cup more or less to taste
  • Grated Romano Cheese About 1/4 cup..more or less to taste.
  • Approx: 2 Tbs. Butter or Margarine
  • Seasonings:
  • Salt
  • Pepper
  • Garlic Powder or fresh garlic if you prefer
  • Onion Powder (diced onions if you are feeling ambitious)
  • Italian seasoning

Directions
  1. In a Large Pot of boiling water with salt and a drops or two of olive oil to keep pasta from sticking, cook pasta according to package directions.
  2. Meanwhile, trim any excess fat,veins etc..and cube chicken into bite-sized pieces.
  3. Melt the butter or margarine in a medium to large skillet and add cubed chicken, Add above seasonings to taste and brown over medium heat. ( I like the Chicken well seasoned, I add just a touch more than I would use if I were serving the Chicken separate.)
  4. Once the Chicken is browned, reduce to a low flame and simmer while the pasta finishes cooking.
  5. Cut olives black and green into quarters (add as many or as few as you like. I used 3/4 can black olives and a little over half of the jar of large green olives)
  6. (This is also a good time to grate the cheeses if not already grated.)
  7. Drain the Pasta, rinse lightly, drain and return to pasta pot. ( I usually rinse the pasta pot before returning the pasta)
  8. Add the Chicken, cut olives, grated cheeses and toss.
  9. Pour in the Alfredo Sauce. (I used 1 and 1/2 jars add the full 2 jars if you like it really creamy) Heat over medium flame until sauce is thouroghly heated through and serve!
  10. I have also made this without the chicken, I did reduce the amount of alfredo sauce to make it a consistency I like.
  11. Great with your favoite Garlic bread (pre made if you are short on time)
  12. Please let me know if you enjoyed this recipe as much as we did!

Ok...I have actually made this recipe omitting the chicken and adding broccoli. I have made it with just sauteed baby bella mushrooms and no meat. I have done it with the steak and baby bellas. I have also even done this one with cut green beans and no meat. And for the bacon lovers, I have cooked bacon crisp and crumbled and put into this recipe along with and without the chicken!! Have fun and let me know what you come up with!!!
