Green Chili chicken Alfredo

I made this tonight and it turned out great! I couldn't find any low fat ready made alfredo sauce so I just made my own!


GREEN CHILE CHICKEN ALFREDO
5 oz Smart Taste egg noodles
1 lb boneless chicken breast halves, cubed
1/3 c. diced roasted green chilies
2 oz light cream cheese
3 TB reduced fat Parmesan cheese
½ c. skim milk
Dash garlic powder

Bring saucepan of water to boil and add pasta; cook until al dente’. In a large skillet, brown the chicken pieces until lightly browned and cooked through. Remove the cooked chicken to a plate and keep warm. Sauté the garlic and green chile over medium heat; add cream cheese, Parmesan cheese and milk. Reduce heat to medium low and mix well. Add the cooked chicken and heat through. Fold in cooked pasta. Yield: 4 servings.
