Tips:

  • Prep before cooking: Chop the necessary ingredients like green chilies, chicken, and vegetables beforehand to make the cooking process smoother and faster.
  • Sear the chicken: Before adding the chicken to the pasta, sear it in a separate pan with some olive oil. This will give it a nice golden-brown color and add flavor to the dish.
  • Use a flavorful cheese: Choose a cheese that melts well and has a bold flavor, such as cheddar, Parmesan, or Monterey Jack. This will add a satisfying cheesy texture and taste to your pasta.
  • Season to taste: Taste the pasta towards the end of cooking and adjust the seasonings accordingly. Add more salt, pepper, or chili powder if needed.
  • Garnish before serving: Before serving, sprinkle some freshly chopped parsley or cilantro over the pasta for an extra pop of color and flavor.
