CHICKEN ALFREDO PASTA
Get ready for a comforting classic—our chicken Alfredo pasta! Tender chicken, creamy sauce, and perfectly cooked pasta come together for a deliciously satisfying meal. It’s the ultimate comfort food, perfect for any day you’re craving something cozy and tasty!
COOKING THE PASTA
My favorite pasta to use for this recipe is Penne. But you can also use any type of pasta you prefer. I would recommend spaghetti, farfalle or fusilli.
Begin by cooking the pasta to the perfect al dente texture, following the package instructions, and don’t forget to add a pinch of salt to the boiling water. As the pasta simmers, save around half a cup of the cooking water, and once the pasta reaches its ideal doneness, simply drain it.
This way, you can efficiently multitask, starting the sauce while the pasta cooks, ensuring everything is ready in harmony.
