Light Alfredo pasta sauce dresses up simple stovetop chicken and mushrooms. Broccoli cooked with fresh slices of lemon makes an easy (and healthful) side dish.

  • 4 small skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
  • Salt and pepper
  • 8 ounces mushrooms, halved
  • 1 Tablespoon olive or cooking oil
  • 1 lemon
  • 3 cups fresh broccoli florets

  3. Place chicken and vegetables on plates. Add Alfredo sauce to skillet; heat through. Serve with chicken. Add lemon peel and pepper.
