I tried a variation of this recipe tonight trying to find something to do with things we had sitting around in the pantry/fridge; using normal onion instead of green onion, a mix of both green and red bell pepper, and a can of diced tomatoes with green chiles instead of just diced tomatoes, and a homemade alfredo sauce.
It certainly wasn't the worst thing I ever made in my life, anything that was "bad" about it was really my own fault, though 10 minutes was nowhere near enough time to cook the chicken breasts all the way through. I suspected this when I first read the recipe but figured I'd just trust the recipe. I ended up having to slice the chicken during the cooking process just to get the insides done without burning the outsides.
I'm sure I would have enjoyed this meal a lot more if I could have made it -look- better, but considering the whole deal with the chicken and it was my first time making a sauce from scratch, my attitude was a little too fargone to enjoy it completely.

My family loves this dish, but I make it without the bell peppers. The green onions add a nice touch. My husband loves any dish where I mix tomatoes and alfredo sauce, and my kids will eat it too.

This is one of my favorite recipes and very easy. I often substitute seafood (crab meat, scallops, and shrimp) for the chicken. I also use the diced tomatoes with basil, garlic and oregano. Family and friends just love it. If you under cook the noodles just a little bit this recipe works great in the crock pot.

Fabulous recipe! I made this for my boyfriend last week and he was in love. We are going to switch out the peppers for asparagus, though.

Very yummy recipe! If you use garlic oil instead of vegetable oil, it makes the chicken even better! Also, instead of original alfredo sauce, they sell sun-dried tomato alfredo sauce... also makes it yummy!
