Critical Success Points
- • Season the chicken evenly before cooking.
- • Cook chicken until it reaches 165°F internal temperature.
- • Simmer pasta with enough liquid until al dente without burning the sauce.
- • Melt the cheese off the heat to avoid a grainy texture.
Safety Warnings
- • Use a meat thermometer to ensure chicken reaches 165°F (74°C).
- • Handle hot pan and oil with care to avoid burns.
- • Do not leave the simmering sauce unattended; it can scorch.
