Chicken Fettuccini Alfredo

1 lb. chicken
1 (8 oz.) cream cheese
¾ c. parmesan cheese
½ c. real butter
½ c. milk
fettuccini noodles
salt & pepper to taste
Vegetables: broccoli, carrots, peas, etc.

Cut up chicken into bite size pieces. Season with salt and pepper, thyme, and garlic. Cook over med heat on stove. Set on paper towel to drain oil. Start water boiling for noodles, cook and drain. Melt butter in medium pan on low heat. Add cream cheese and milk. Stir together. Add parmesan cheese. Keep stirring until smooth. If it is too thick, add more milk. Add pasta, chicken, and any other cooked vegetables. Season with garlic powder to taste.

I make this with the chicken/vegetables and without--it's good either way!
