How to cook pasta
Cook pasta after you make the sauce so that pasta is fresh. Besides, when pasta is hot it can absorb the sauce very well making it so very tasty.
If you like pasta that is neither too hard nor too soft, always cook it Al Dente. You will drain, but not rinse the pasta in order for the sauce to stick. Drain, but do not rinse!
Assembly of creamy chicken pasta
ADD COOKED PASTA to the skillet with the sauce and stir to combine on low heat for 2-4 minutes.
ADJUST THE SEASONING! You should taste the sauce at this point and add more salt and seasoning if needed.
RETURN COOKED CHICKEN BREASTS to the skillet on top of the pasta. Allow the skillet to warm up for an additional 5 minutes.
SERVE CHICKEN either on top or next to pasta and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese, if desired.
Store, make ahead, refrigerate
REFRIGERATE. Keep your chicken pasta refrigerated in an airtight container until ready to enjoy for up to 1 week.
MAKE IT IN ADVANCE. If you don’t plan to serve this creamy chicken pasta right away, you can make it in advance to serve later. In fact, the flavors will develop even more as it sits! However, keep in mind that the pasta will absorb a lot of the sauce. Therefore your dish will be less creamy if you make it in advance and store all the ingredients together.
The solution? Simply add more cream or chicken stock when reheating.
OMIT THE PASTA. Another alternative to keep the dish fresh would be to prepare everything except for the pasta. You can refrigerate it for up to 1 week and then cook the pasta fresh when you are ready to serve it.
