Cooking Instructions:
2
Begin by preparing the chicken. Heat olive oil and butter in a skillet over
medium heat, then add the chicken breasts. Season with salt, pepper, and garlic
powder, cooking until the chicken is thoroughly cooked and golden brown.
3
Once done, chop the chicken into bite-sized pieces or shred it if using
rotisserie chicken.
4
In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic, heavy
cream, salt, and pepper. Stir the mixture until it thickens, then incorporate
Parmesan cheese to create a rich Alfredo sauce.
5
In the same saucepan, combine the Alfredo sauce with buffalo sauce, stirring
over medium-low heat until both sauces are well combined and heated through.
6
While the sauce is simmering, cook the penne pasta according to package
instructions in a large pot of boiling water until al dente.
7
Once cooked, drain the pasta in a colander and set aside.
8
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked pasta, chicken, and the sauce. Stir
in the grated Monterey Jack cheese until everything is evenly coated.
9
Serve immediately, garnished with optional blue cheese crumbles, diced green
onions, or crushed red pepper flakes if desired.

crumbles or fresh herbs before serving.
