To make this alfredo pasta, I started by cooking some store bought refrigerated cheese tortellini according to the directions on the package.

Then I drained the tortellini and set it aside.

I dumped some butter into a large non stick skillet over medium-high heat.

Once the butter was fully melted I added some garlic puree to the skillet.

I also added some Italian seasoning to the skillet.

I stirred well and cooked the garlic for a couple of minutes.

Then I added some heavy cream to the skillet.

I also added some salt and pepper to the skillet.

I stirred well.

I left the sauce to simmer and thicken, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes.

After 10 minutes, I added the cooked tortellini to the skillet.

I stirred until the tortellini was coated in sauce.

I added some shredded rotisserie chicken and stirred until all of the chicken was coated in sauce.

I left the dish to continue cooking for two minutes.

Then I removed the skillet from the heat and added some shredded parmesan and fresh chopped basil to the skillet.
