FAQ
Q: Can I use pre-cooked chicken?
A: Absolutely! Rotisserie chicken or leftover grilled chicken works well. Add it in step 3 to heat through.
Q: Can I freeze this dish?
A: While the pasta and cream sauce may not freeze perfectly, you can freeze individual portions in airtight containers for up to a month. Thaw overnight in the fridge and reheat gently.
Q: Can I use milk instead of heavy cream?
A: Yes, but the sauce may be thinner. For a thicker consistency, mix a teaspoon of cornstarch with cold milk before adding it to the skillet.
Enjoy this delightful dish, and don't be surprised if it becomes a regular request at your dinner table! 🥘✨
