TIPS FOR MAKING THE BEST CREAMY GARLIC CHICKEN PASTA

The perfect creamy garlic chicken pasta recipe is built on balancing flavours and textures. Here are some basics to take your dishes to the next level:

USE QUALITY INGREDIENTS: Switch on with fresh chicken breast and premium pasta. The quality of your ingredients will just determine the same quality as your garlic chicken pasta recipe.

USE BAQA FOODS' GARLIC PASTE INSTEAD OF FRESH GARLIC: This will infuse your dish with a rich flavour and a full-bodied taste. It saves some time while ensuring a consistent garlic aftertaste in your dish. Only a tablespoon added while preparing your sauce is enough for a flavour boost.

DON'T BE SHY ABOUT THE CREAM: A creamy pasta recipe requires heavy cream to create that silky, luxurious texture. Of course, half-and-half works as a lighter replacement; it's the heavy cream, however, that does give you the best taste.

DRESS WITH EXUBERANCE: Dress your chicken before cooking and so dress the sauce appropriately to complement flavours in your dish.

TOSS ON FRESH HERBS TO SERVE: Some parsley or basil adds a beautiful fresh burst over the rich sauce.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (FAQ)

CAN I USE A DIFFERENT TYPE OF PASTA?

Of course, you can use another type of pasta for your creamy garlic chicken pasta! The wonderful thing about the recipe is that one can be flexible to use whatever kind of pasta shapes one wants to use. You just love fettuccine or penne and even gluten-free versions; each brings its texture and character.

For example, long pasta like tagliatelle or linguine goes great with rich creams, while penne and shells can hold the sauce well.

WHAT CAN I SUBSTITUTE FOR HEAVY CREAM?

MILK AND BUTTER: Mixing 3/4 cup whole milk is great when mixed with 1/4 cup melted butter makes a rich substitute which, in general, works quite well in cooking and baking.

EVAPORATED MILK: is a shelf product that, although thinner than heavy cream, could replace it in most recipes, thus acting as a thickness without the fat.

HALF & HALF: is equal parts milk and cream, and can often be substituted directly for heavy cream in recipes; it will not whip up to airy perfection. 

HOW DO I STORE LEFTOVERS?

COOL BEFORE REFRIGERATION: Let pasta cool down to room temperature first before refrigerating it. It helps avoid condensation that leads to sogginess.

TRANSFER PASTA TO AIR-TIGHT CONTAINERS: so that it stays fresh for a longer period and doesn't suck up some other flavour in the fridge. Refrigerate Immediately: The leftovers should be kept refrigerated within two hours after preparation. It can be kept for about 3 to 4 days in a good fridge.

REHEAT THOROUGHLY: Add a splash of milk or cream to it that will help it regain its creamy consistency since the sauce will set once chilled. Heat low to medium and watch out for that won't separate the sauce.
