Critical Success Points

  • Cook the pasta in boiling water until it reaches an al dente texture.
  • Pound the chicken breasts to an even thickness, taking care not to tear them.
  • Season the chicken well and coat it with spices.
  • Sear the chicken until it’s golden and cooked through, then let it rest.
  • Create a velvety sauce by whisking cream cheese into the cream and broth.
  • Toss the pasta with the sauce until evenly coated.
  • Slice the rested chicken and toss it with the pasta just before serving.

Safety Warnings

  • Exercise caution when handling raw chicken to prevent cross‑contamination.
  • Make sure the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 74 °C to avoid foodborne illness.
  • Handle the meat tenderizer with caution to prevent injury.
