Cooking Instructions
- In a large skillet pan, over medium heat, add the olive oil and finely chopped onion and saute until the onion is translucent and fragrant, about 3 minutes.
- Stir in the garlic cloves and cook for 30 seconds.
- Add the ground chicken, Italian seasoning, kosher salt, and black pepper. Cook and crumble the ground chicken until it's browned and no longer pink. Drain any excess liquid/grease from the pan.
- Make The Alfredo Sauce: In a separate small saucepan, over medium heat, melt the butter. Once melted, add the heavy cream, grated parmesan cheese, garlic powder. Continue cooking, while stirring constantly, for about 3-5 minutes or until the Alfredo sauce is thickened.
- Pour the Alfredo sauce over top the cooked ground chicken mixture in the skillet pan. Stir thoroughly to ensure the chicken is evenly coated in the sauce.
- Simmer for 10 minutes or until the sauce has thickened.
- Serve the creamy chicken alfredo sloppy joe mixture onto the bottom bun and add a slice of cheese (if using). Enjoy!
Notes
I recommend toasting/broiling the buns for serving. Separate the buns and lay them onto a cookie sheet. Spread butter on each, or spray with cooking spray, and broil for a few minutes. Watch carefully! After broiling, I like to add a slice of cheese on each top bun and then broil again for just like 30 seconds or less.
