Dairy Free Chicken Alfredo
Ingredients
1 small-medium roasted spaghetti squash
2-4 pasture raised chicken breasts
1/2 cup chicken bone broth
5-8 oz fresh baby spinach
8 oz package mushrooms sliced
1 cup raw soaked cashews (30-40mins)
1 cup full fat coconut milk
5 cloves garlic (2 chopped)
1 lemon juiced
3 tbls nutritional yeast
5 large basil leaves chopped
S&P
Onion Powder
Pinch dried chili flakes
1-2 tbls ghee
Green onions sliced
OPTIONAL if you can eat good quality parmesan, grate a wee bit in the sauce
How To
Roast your spaghetti squash and set aside.
Soak your cashews for a minimum of 30 minutes and drain.
Cook your chicken breasts in a skillet with ghee and s&p until browned on each side. Add in the 2 cloves chopped garlic and sliced mushrooms, saute until soft and fragrant. Add 1/4 – 1/2 of the sock to the skillet. Simmer a few. Shred the chicken.
Add in the spaghetti squash (maybe only half if it was a big one) to the skillet with the chicken and give a toss. Turn on low.
To make the alfredo, I use my Ninja smoothie cup and add the cashews, coconut milk, lemon juice, 3 cloves garlic, nutritional yeast, 4 basil leaves (reserve one for garnish), s&p to taste, shake of onion powder, chili flakes. BLEND until creamy and delicious. Taste and adjust seasonings to taste.
Pour alfredo sauce over the chicken and mushrooms in the skillet. Give a good toss. Stir in some baby spinach, as much or as little as you want. Serve with sliced green onions and fresh basil on top. ENJOY!!
