    2 Tbsp flour
    3 Tbsp reduced fat cream cheese
    12 oz can evaporated milk, fat free
    1/2 C nonfat milk

Tips

You may choose to add chopped, steamed broccoli or drained, canned mushrooms when adding chicken.


Directions

In a large pan at medium heat, melt Brummel and Brown, along with the garlic. Using a whisk, add flour and saute for a few minutes to make a roux. Add cream cheese. When the cheese has melted and the mixture begins to thicken slightly, add nonfat milk. When mixture begins to thicken, add evaporated milk. Continue to cook, stirring constantly until thickened and bubbly. Season with pepper.

Remove from heat and stir in diced chicken and parmesan cheese.

Pour over prepared fettucine noodles, and stir with large spoon or spatula to coat.
