Chicken Alfredo Pasta Recipe
A luxuriously creamy vegan Alfredo pasta featuring plant-based chicken, cashew sauce, and fettuccine — indulgent, flavorful, and completely dairy-free.
Ingredients
Method
- Soak cashews in hot water for 15 minutes. Because patience equals creaminess.
- Cook fettuccine according to package instructions, drain, and set aside.
- In a pan, heat olive oil and sauté garlic until fragrant.
- Blend soaked cashews, almond milk, nutritional yeast, lemon juice, salt, and pepper until silky smooth.
- Pour the sauce into the pan and cook on low heat for 5 minutes until thickened.
- In another pan, cook plant-based chicken strips with olive oil until golden and slightly crisp.
- Add the vegan chicken to the Alfredo sauce and stir gently.
- Toss in the cooked pasta and mix until everything is beautifully coated.
- Optional: add spinach for that “I eat greens” energy.
- Garnish with parsley and serve immediately — like the kitchen queen you are.
