Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. Look for fresh, organic produce, free-range chicken, and high-quality pasta.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the chicken. This will prevent it from cooking evenly.
  • Cook the pasta according to the package directions, but be sure to reserve some of the pasta water before draining. This will help to create a creamy sauce.
  • Don't boil the sauce. Bring it to a simmer and then reduce the heat to low. This will help to prevent the sauce from curdling.
  • Add the lemon juice and zest at the end of cooking. This will help to brighten the flavors of the sauce.
  • Serve the pasta immediately, topped with grated Parmesan cheese and fresh parsley.
