Spinach Chicken Alfredo



Alfredo sauce:
1/2 stick butter
2 cups heavy cream 

2 cups freshly grated Parmesan cheese
 [ grated from Wedge block]
1 tsp salt [ or I really like Adobo seasoning --made up of salt, pepper, garlic powder and Turmeric]
1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 tablespoon lemon juice

Directions for sauce:
Melt butter and cream in a medium, non-stick saucepan over medium heat. Add salt, pepper, and parmesan cheese, stirring frequently until cheese is melted, then add lemon juice and garlic powder and whisk until smooth. 
Cover and remove from heat when sauce reaches desired consistency.

2 TB dried onion flakes, or diced small onion
2 good sized frozen boneless Chicken breast

1/2 box linguine noodles prepared as directed on box.
