This is a mouth-watering way to use up some of your zucchini bounty. If you didn't grow any zucchini this year, it will be worth going to the store to pick some up! I came up with this recipe the year I planted four zucchini plants...and the zucchini couldn't grow fast enough for our family! Every time there was one big enough, we made this recipe! :D And yes, the garlic amount is correct...a head, not a clove. It's very garlicky, but the garlic softens and mellows in texture and flavor. I've actually had the garlic melt (for lack of a better phrase) when baked long enough. Ingredients:
4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves or 8 boneless skinless chicken thighs, cubed |
1 large zucchini, cubed or 3 -4 small zucchini, sliced |
1/2 lb mushroom, sliced |
1 head garlic, peeled and cloves left whole |
8 ounces cream cheese, cubed |
2 (16 ounce) jars alfredo sauce (i use ragu brand) |
hot cooked noodles |
Directions:
1. Combine chicken, zucchini, mushrooms and garlic in a baking dish. 2. Sprinkle the cream cheese cubes over all, then pour the alfredo sauce over the top and gently stir to moisten. 3. Bake at 350 degrees for 1-1/2 hours. 4. Serve over hot, cooked noodles. 5. Note: If desired, this could be made in the crockpot and cooked on low for 8 hours. |
