Chicken Meatball Alfredo Recipe

Recipe By The Spruce Eats

Chicken meatball alfredo is a delicious one-dish pasta meal that combines some of my favorite convenience foods. It's rich, hearty, and a family favorite. The secret ingredient is cream cheese That soft, unripened cheese melts into the sauce and adds a tangy flavor and velvety texture. You can, of course, make this recipe with ordinary beef or pork meatballs. But there's something about chicken meatballs that is lighter, more sprightly, more reminiscent of spring. You can also make the chicken meatballs with ground turkey. You can also add more vegetables to this recipe if you'd like. Some chopped bell peppers, yellow summer squash, some shredded carrots, or baby peas would all be delicious and add color and flavor and nutrition. If you aren't a fan of cream cheese (really?) you could substitute one cup of sour cream or ricotta in its place. That adds the same velvety texture and richness. Serve this wonderful and filling dish with a crisp green salad tossed with mushrooms, grape tomatoes, and cubed avocados, and some steamed green beans or asparagus. Or you could add a fruit salad made with the best fruits of the season, whatever that may be. For dessert, offer some brownies or perhaps an ice cream pie. A nice glass of white wine or some iced tea would complete the meal perfectly.
