Tips:

  • Choose ripe and juicy clementines, as this will greatly impact the flavor of the sauce.
  • If you don't have clementines, you can use oranges instead, but the flavor will be slightly different.
  • To save time, you can use pre-cooked chicken, such as rotisserie chicken.
  • If you don't have avocado oil, you can use olive oil instead.
  • Be careful not to overcook the chicken, as this will result in dry and tough meat.
  • Add the clementine sauce to the chicken and pasta just before serving, as this will help to preserve the bright flavor of the sauce.
  • Garnish the dish with fresh herbs, such as parsley or cilantro, for an extra touch of flavor.
