Critical Success Points

  • Season chicken thoroughly so flavor penetrates
  • Sear chicken without burning the spices
  • Deglaze the pan to lift caramelized bits
  • Cook pasta directly in the sauce to achieve a creamy coating
  • Allow the dish to cool before sealing containers to avoid condensation

Safety Warnings

  • Hot oil can cause burns – handle the pot with oven mitts
  • Ensure chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C)
  • Steam released when deglazing can cause splatter
