5. Stir in cream, milk, and Parmesan cheese. Place pasta in a bowl, layer chicken over pasta. Pour sauce over top of chicken and around pasta.
"Instead of the butter, I would use cooking spray and a non stick skillet/saut� pan. I would re-spray the pan to saut� the onions. The heavy cream is the tough one! Switch to light cream? Better yet, make a b�chamel-type sauce with 1/4 cup flour to two cups of liquid (a combination of 2% milk and maybe a little bit of cream) with the bouillon cube. I�d make sure to use real Parmigianno Regianno cheese -- it�s way more flavorful than the canned Parmesan cheese, so you can get away with using less."- Donna
"I would use an olive oil spray, skim milk and fat-free half and half in place of the heavy cream."- Betsy
"To start with, I would eliminate the butter and oil all together and use cooking spray. Butter or garlic flavor Pam would be great for this. I think you can get low-fat or fat free whipping cream, but not sure about that. And the milk I would just use skim. Sounds good too, no matter how you make it!"
