Fettuccine Alfredo
Description
The recipe won't take much time. Alfredo's wife was pregnant and could only eat pasta with lots of butter. That's how this recipe was born! It became popular in America, especially among Hollywood stars. On the other side of the Atlantic, people started adding cream to the recipe as well. We'll cook the pasta, prepare the sauce, sauté the vegetables and chicken fillet, then mix everything together. Serve hot.
