EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

If you've purchased breaded chicken breast fillets instead of the nuggets, go ahead and bake them, then cut into pieces just before tossing with the fettuccine.

Refrigerated pasta cooks more quickly than the dried variety, so follow the directions on the package carefully.

This was pretty good. I used frozen breaded chicken nuggets, but those were not the best choice to use. Also,needs more cheese.

This was easy and great. I didn't want to spend the extra money to buy refrigerated fettucini so I used dry. Cheaper and didn't take much longer. It was a great sauce and I might use it when we are having just regular spaghetti!

Yesterday I made this recipe for dinner. My husband and a family friend who joined us loved it! It was quick and easy. I already had all the ingredients. I made a salad and we also had garlic bread. I wouldn't change a thing. I will make it again. This is definitely a keeper.
