 Alfredo Sauce
1 Tbsp olive oil
4 cloves garlic, minced
3 Tbsp flour

Preheat oven to 375 F. Cook the pasta al dente in a large stockpot of well-salted boiling according to pkg instructions. Drain. Return pasta to the stockpot and add chicken and alfredo sauce. Gently toss to combine until the pasta is evenly coated.

Pour half of the pasta into a greased 11x7-inch or 9x13 baking dish. Sprinkle evenly with 1 cup of cheese. Layer the remaining half of the pasta evenly on top. Sprinkle evenly with the remaining 1/2 cup of cheese. Bake for 20-25 minutes until the cheese is melted and just barely starts to turn golden. Remove and serve immediately, sprinkled with additional toppings if desired.

Alfredo Sauce  Heat olive oil in a large saute pan over medium-high heat. Add garlic and saute one minute, stirring occasionally, until fragrant. Sprinkle with flour, and stir to combine. Saute an additional minute to cook flour, stirring occasionally. Slowly add chicken broth, whisking to combine until smooth. Whisk in milk, and bring mixture to a simmer. Let cook for an additional minute until thickened, then stir in Parmesan cheese, salt and pepper until the cheese melted. Remove from heat and set aside.
