→ For Serving
09 -
4 hamburger buns
10 -
Fresh parsley, chopped
# How to Make It:
01 -
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the finely chopped onion and sauté for about 3-4 minutes until translucent and fragrant. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, stirring frequently to prevent burning. Add the ground chicken, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon as it cooks. Cook for about 5-7 minutes until no longer pink and fully cooked through, stirring occasionally.
02 -
Reduce the heat to low and pour in the heavy cream, stirring to combine with the chicken and onion mixture. Gradually add the grated Parmesan cheese, stirring continuously until melted and creamy, about 2-3 minutes. Sprinkle in the Italian seasoning and season with salt and pepper to taste. Stir until well combined. If too thick, add a splash of chicken broth or water to reach desired consistency.
03 -
Prepare the hamburger buns by toasting them lightly on a skillet or in a toaster. Spoon a generous amount of the chicken Alfredo mixture onto the bottom half of each bun, ensuring a good amount of sauce and chicken. Top with the other half of the bun. Optionally, add extra Parmesan cheese on top.
04 -
Place the assembled Chicken Alfredo Sloppy Joes on a serving platter and garnish with freshly chopped parsley. Serve with crispy fries, a fresh salad, or steamed vegetables for a complete meal. Enjoy warm!
# Additional Notes:
01 -
For added nutrition, consider incorporating chopped bell peppers or spinach when sautéing the onions.

For a spicy kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the Alfredo sauce.

Substitute heavy cream with half-and-half or a low-fat cream alternative for a lighter version.

Experiment with different cheeses like mozzarella or cream cheese for a unique flavor.
