BASIL CHICKEN AND PASTA



Basil Chicken and Pasta image

This is a great quick meal; the chicken and sauce can be prepared in the time it takes to cook the pasta. You can add more cream or less pasta if you like it creamier. Try ziti or farfalle pasta to add even more variety to this recipe. The leftovers don't heat very well, so eat it all up the first time!

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all your ingredients and equipment ready to go. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling in the kitchen.
  • Use fresh ingredients: The fresher your ingredients, the better your dish will taste. Whenever possible, use fresh chicken, vegetables, and herbs.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the chicken or pasta, don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the food from cooking evenly.
  • Season your food: Don't forget to season your food with salt and pepper. You can also add other spices and herbs to taste.
  • Cook the pasta al dente: Pasta should be cooked al dente, which means it should be slightly firm to the bite. This will prevent it from becoming mushy.
  • Make sure the sauce is thick enough: The sauce should be thick enough to coat the pasta and chicken. If it's too thin, add a little bit of cornstarch or flour to thicken it up.
  • Serve the dish hot: Chicken and pasta with garlic sauce is best served hot. Garnish with fresh parsley or basil for extra flavor.

Conclusion:

Chicken and pasta with garlic sauce is a quick and easy weeknight meal that the whole family will love. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a delicious and flavorful dish that is sure to please everyone at the table.
