LEFTOVER CHICKEN ALFREDO FETTUCCINE

Steps:

• Put water on to boil. Add enough salt so that the water tastes salty. For 8 cups of water I add about a tablespoon of salt. Trust me, your pasta will taste much better and you will need hardly any in the sauce.
• Add the pasta once the water has started to boil and cook until 'el dente'. It will cook a bit more in the sauce, so you want it a bit underdone.
• While the pasta is cooking, add the cream and chicken cubes into a skillet. Heat until bubbly and slightly reduced.
• Add in green onion and remove from heat.
• Drain pasta reserving a cup of the liquid. Add pasta to sauce and mix well. Stir in frozen peas and parmesean.
• If the pasta is looking a little dry or too thick, add back in a bit of the pasta water or some sour cream.
