Step-by-Step Instructions for Chicken Alfredo Sloppy Joes
- If using raw chicken, place it in a pot of boiling water and cook for about 15-20 minutes until fully tender. Ensure the chicken is no longer pink, then shred or dice it into bite-sized pieces.
- In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onion and minced garlic, cooking for about 3-4 minutes until they become fragrant and the onions are translucent.
- Slowly pour in 1 cup of heavy cream while stirring continuously to combine with the sautéed onion and garlic. Gradually whisk in 1 cup of grated Parmesan cheese, stirring constantly for about 3-5 minutes until the sauce thickens and becomes creamy.
- Gently fold in the shredded chicken along with any optional chopped spinach or roasted red peppers. Stir until all the ingredients are well-coated, allowing the mixture to simmer for an additional 2-3 minutes.
- Take 4 toasted sandwich buns and generously spoon the creamy chicken mixture onto the bottom half of each bun. If desired, sprinkle with shredded mozzarella.
- For a delightful twist, consider serving the chicken Alfredo mixture over cooked pasta rather than in buns.
