Why You’ll Love This Greek Chicken Alfredo Recipe

This isn’t your basic Alfredo. The Greek twist adds a layer of brightness with lemon juice, oregano, and a hint of feta stirred right into the sauce. The chicken is seasoned and seared until golden and juicy, while the broccoli roasts in the oven until its edges are caramelized and its texture is crisp. That contrast is everything.

Plus, it comes together in under an hour, using mostly pantry staples. You can easily meal prep components ahead of time, and it reheats like a dream.

What Kind of Pasta Should I Use for Greek Chicken Alfredo?

Fettuccine is the go-to pasta for this dish because it holds onto the creamy sauce beautifully. But don’t feel limited! Penne, rigatoni, or even linguine work just as well. The key is to choose a pasta that can handle the weight of the Alfredo without becoming lost in the sauce. If you’re going gluten-free, chickpea or lentil pasta will hold up great and add a little extra protein.

How To Make the Greek Chicken Alfredo Recipe

Step 1: Season and Sear the Chicken

Season your chicken breast with salt, pepper, oregano, and a touch of lemon zest. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken until golden brown and fully cooked through. Remove and let rest before slicing into bite-sized pieces.

Step 2: Prepare the Crispy Parmesan Broccoli

Toss broccoli florets in olive oil, salt, and a mix of Parmesan cheese and breadcrumbs. Spread them out on a baking sheet and roast at 425°F for 20 minutes, until crispy and lightly golden.

Step 3: Cook the Pasta

Boil fettuccine in salted water until al dente. Reserve some pasta water before draining.

Step 4: Make the Alfredo Sauce

In the same skillet used for the chicken, sauté garlic in olive oil until fragrant. Add heavy cream, lemon juice, crumbled feta, and grated Parmesan. Stir until the sauce is smooth and slightly thickened. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.

Step 5: Combine and Serve

Add cooked pasta to the Alfredo sauce, tossing to coat. If needed, use reserved pasta water to loosen the sauce. Fold in the chicken, plate the pasta, and top with crispy Parmesan broccoli for that perfect finishing crunch.

How to Serve and Store Greek Chicken Alfredo

This Ultimate Greek Chicken Alfredo is a meal that delivers both comfort and elegance, making it perfect for weeknight dinners or entertaining guests. It feeds approximately 4 to 6 people, especially when paired with a light salad or a warm piece of bread.

To serve, plate a generous portion of the fettuccine tossed in the creamy Greek Alfredo sauce, then top it with slices of juicy seared chicken and a good helping of crispy Parmesan broccoli. A final sprinkle of feta or a squeeze of lemon juice can really elevate each bite.

Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stove or in the microwave with a splash of milk or cream to restore the sauce’s smooth texture.
