Ingredients:


  • 12 oz uncooked fettuccine 
  • 2 tbsp grape seed oil 
  • 1 ½ lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts cut into bite-size pieces (may substitute with precooked deli rotisserie chicken
  • about 2 cups cooked chopped chicken) 
  • 1 cup Odyssey® Greek Plain Yogurt 
  • 1 cup heavy cream 
  • ½ cup milk

Directions:


  1. Cook fettuccine according to package directions; drain (do not rinse) and place back in pot.
  2. While fettuccine is cooking, add grape seed oil to a large skillet and place over medium-high heat. Add chicken breast pieces, cook and stir until done. Cover and set aside. 
  3. In a large saucepan, add Greek Plain Yogurt, cream, milk, butter, nutmeg, salt, pepper, garlic powder and cheese. Whisk to combine and place over medium-low heat. Cook and gently stir until cheese melts and sauce is done, about 5-8 minutes.
