Low Fat Chicken Alfredo

1 1/2 lbs. boneless skinless chicken breast
1 white onion
8 oz uncooked (1/2 box) vermicelli spaghetti
2 oz shredded low fat Parmesan cheese
1/4 teaspoon allspice
1/2 teaspoon basil
2-3 teaspoons minced garlic
1/2 jar fat-free chicken gravy (6 oz)
1 tablespoon flour
6 oz low-fat sour cream
 

Cut chicken breast into 3/4 inch squares. Sauté in small amount of vegetable oil over medium to medium-low heat. Dice onions and add to chicken.

Cook chicken thoroughly, testing by cutting largest piece - juices should no longer run pink and chicken will be tender.

Sprinkle liberally with basil, garlic and allspice. Stir in.

Stir in chicken gravy, reducing heat to a simmer. Sprinkle with flour and stir in water to achieve desired thickening.

Cook spaghetti according to packet instructions.

Simmer for 5 minutes over low heat, stirring in 2 oz of Parmesan cheese. Fold in sour cream and remove from heat.

Drain and rinse cooked spaghetti with cool water.

Top individual portions of spaghetti with Chicken Alfredo combination and then sprinkle remaining Parmesan on top.
