One Pot Chicken Broccoli Alfredo

This One Pot Chicken Broccoli Alfredo is the ultimate weeknight dinner—creamy, comforting, and made entirely in one pot. Seasoned chicken is browned and combined with garlic butter, pasta, and a savory chicken broth-cream blend. The broccoli cooks in the same pot with the pasta for convenience, and everything is finished with a melty trio of cheeses. It's easy, cheesy, and packed with flavor in every bite.
