Ingredients

  • 4 ounces uncooked fettuccine
  • 1 cup broccoli flowerets
  • 1/2 cup 1/4-inch strips carrot
  • 1 teaspoon olive or vegetable oil
  • 1/2 pound boneless skinless chicken breast halves, cut into 1/2-inch strips
  • 1 garlic clove, finely chopped
  • 1/3 cup ranch dressing
  • 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon shredded fresh basil leaves or 1/8 teaspoon dried basil leaves

Steps

  • 1
    Cook and drain fettuccine as directed on package--except add broccoli and carrot 1 minute before fettuccini is done.
  • 2
    While fettucine is cooking, heat oil in 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Cook chicken and garlic in oil 2 to 3 minutes, stirring frequently, until chicken is no longer pink in center; remove from heat.
  • 3
    Stir dressing, cheese and basil into chicken. Toss with fettucine and vegetables.

    Sprinkle dinner plates with coarsely ground pepper before piling high with fettuccine!
