- Add the chicken back to the pan and let everything simmer for a few more minutes.
- Add the cooked pasta. If the sauce seems too thick, you can thin it out with a little of the pasta water.
- Garnish with fresh parsley and extra Parmesan before serving.
Serving suggestions
This pasta goes great with:
- Garlic bread
- Green salad with lemon vinaigrette
- Roasted vegetables
- Steamed broccoli
- Cherry tomatoes
Tips
- Grate the Parmesan yourself for an extra creamy sauce.
- Don't let the sauce boil after adding the cheese – that will make it the smoothest.
- Feel free to season with a pinch of chili flakes if you want a little heat.
Variations
- Add fried mushrooms or fresh spinach.
- Replace the chicken with turkey or shrimp.
- Season with sun-dried tomatoes for a Mediterranean-inspired twist.
- Use whole wheat pasta or gluten-free pasta if you prefer.
Storage
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. Gently reheat in a frying pan or saucepan with a splash of cream or milk to make the sauce creamy again.
