We love Alfredo. You've already seen a few versions here before, but this Weight Watchers Chicken Alfredo Recipe is one that we really love and know tastes delicious. The Wee Child, specifically, really loves alfredo dishes, so finding one that the whole family could enjoy was important. Even though I don't eat meat and dairy these days, I love having a family-friendly option on hand.

This Chicken Alfredo recipe contains just a few simple ingredients. One of which is Laughing Cow cheese. We love this for snacks but found it melts beautifully on pasta and really makes this a great choice for a healthier recipe the whole family loves. I also love using angel hair pasta as it makes me feel like I am getting more pasta.
Ingredients for Chicken Alfredo Recipe
2 cups shredded chicken breast (I use rotisserie chicken)
1 16 ounce package of angel hair pasta
6 Wedges Laughing Cow Garlic and Herb cheese
½ cup Parmesan Cheese, grated
½ cup water
2 teaspoons Italian seasoning blend
½-1 teaspoon black pepper (to taste)
How to Make Chicken Alfredo
Cook angel hair pasta according to package directions, leaving slightly al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a large saucepan, over medium heat, combine water, cheeses, and seasonings until cheese has melted and a sauce begins to form. This won't be a traditional sauce and will be a bit lumpy and should take only 3-4 minutes.
Add in chicken and pasta and use tongs or pasta fork to combine well so that all pasta is coated. Add black pepper to taste. Cook for additional 2-3 minutes or until chicken is heated through.
Remove from heat and serve.

The serving size for this is a bit smaller than my normal pasta dishes, but with the addition of the chicken, it is pretty satisfying. I personally recommend mixing in some broccoli, peas, or asparagus to the dish, and making it a 1 ½ cup serving for the same points value. A nice side salad or steamed vegetable will also give you a great satisfying meal your whole family will enjoy!
This Weight Watchers chicken alfredo recipe is going to be a favorite last minute meal you can whip up in no time. If you are also a fan of lower points on your pasta, then check out the Carba Nada products for a 3SP serving of pasta instead of 5-6!
