Grilled Chicken with Alfredo Sauce
Paul @sillyRobut
Stop buying those plastic tubs of sauce and make your own! It's a lot easier than you'd think. This goes great with grilled chicken, but really any protien will work.

- 1
First, put on a pot of water for your pasta of choice. Fettuccine or linguine are common, but if all you have is spaghetti, that's fine too. We're not fancy.
When it's boiling, cook the pasta. If it finishes up a little early, drain and set aside, but it should finish up around the time everything else is ready.
- 2
Start grilling your chicken breasts. I like to slice them so they're not super thick, and don't take forever to cook all the way through.
- 3
In a sauce pan, gently melt your butter at low to medium heat. I tend to turn the heat up for a moment and stir constantly, then back to low if I need to set it aside and do something else real quick.
- 4
Once your butter is melted, stir in your garlic, salt, and pepper with a whisk, then slowly add the heavy whipping cream. Keep stirring constantly at medium heat.
- 5
A Note on Stirring: Sometimes people will tell you that you need to 'stir constantly' on a recipe like this. Yes, you do, but it's not going to get ruined if you need to remove the heat, set it aside for a moment, and do something else. 90-120 seconds of sitting there isn't gonna make much of a difference in your sauce.
- 6
Keep stirring, it should be getting pretty close to hot by now. Mix in the parmasean cheese and you guessed it, keep stirring. If all of the cheese is mixed in and melted, and it's still a little runny, you can make a very small corn starch + water slurry and mix that in, but be very careful you don't start the "add starch, now add milk, now add starch, now add milk" loop.
- 7
By now your chicken should be grilled, your pasta cooked and drained, and your sauce ready to go. I like to pre-slice the chicken before plating, then serve it on the top. Garnish with pepper if that's your thing.

Cauliflower Alfredo Sauce
Alfredo sauce is a family favourite but its a very fattening sauce with the amount of butter and cheese that goes into it!!!!!!!!!! So not healthy to eat frequently if you are a pasta lover like my family.I have heard of using cauliflower as an option for making alfredo, so weeeeeeks ago I a bought a massive cauliflower at the saturday veggie market. I was quite excited about this project and I was pleasantly surprised by the outcomeThis is definitely a no guilt sauce! :) I did not think it tasted weird, and you can eat as much as you want and know you don't have to work out extra the next day to burn off a ton of carbs and fat :)I have added two variations to the recipe. The first one is with easy to find ingredients in most countries. You can add some grated parmesan to give it a yummy liftThe second option is strictly Vegan! :)If you give this a try, let me know what you think!
Easy Alfredo Sauce(With Mushroom Broccoli Fettuccine)-Oil Free, Vegan
Have you ever seen the episode of the office where Michael Scott thinks it'll be a good idea to gobble down a giant dish of Fettuccine Alfredo right before he runs the 5K for Rabies awareness?Of course, he vomits before he finishes. If I may say so myself, Michael would have been just dandy if he had eaten this version. It's not necessarily light but it's as light as an authentic feeling Alfredo Sauce can be, trust me.The sauce is composed of 3 ingredients and is super creamy-dreamy, with much less fat than the regular version. Bonus? It's composed of two of the healthiest fats around, Avocado and Coconut, without a distinct taste of either of the two, while being protein rich from the Chickpeas.Are you feeling comfy yet? I hope so. This dish is the ultimate comfort food without breaking your New Year's resolution(when's the last time you heard about a New Year's Resolution in May)!Sautee some nutrient-dense Broccoli with mushrooms, onions, and garlic slap it all on some greens and you've got yourself quite a balanced meal! (Greens optional!)

Pan Grilled Paneer with Pepper Sauce
Black Pepper is high in antioxidants. It is a versatile spice, which can be added to a variety of recipes. It helps in recovery of sour throats, gives a different dimension to our food too. In this recipe, I tried to make a pepper sauce, in my own way. Classic pepper sauce asks to add, chicken stock, whereas I tweaked by adding, Maggi Magic Masala. This sauce, goes very well, with any kind of veg, non-veg appetizers. I served with pan-grilled Paneer.Pan Grilled paneer, is soft and crusty, flavored with a mild marinade. It became a great match for my pepper sauce. #spiceweek5 #sangitakalra

There are other varieties of pepper available too such as yellow pepper, green pepper, and white pepper. Pepper is a good digestive spice, used in the treatment of various throat and nasal infections. Drinking kadha, soup, rasam spiced with pepper improves immunity, gives warmth, and helps in controlling congestion in the throat and nose.I have made an easy pepper and Cheese Sauce which goes very well with pasta, sandwich, baked dishes, grilled veggies, or as a dip. Enjoy!
