Expert Tips for Success
To enhance the flavor of the creamy garlic parmesan pasta, you can add a splash of white wine or chicken broth to the sauce. This will give it a more complex taste and aroma that will impress your guests.
For the honey-glazed chicken, make sure to baste the chicken breasts with the glaze every 10 minutes while baking. This will ensure that the chicken stays moist and flavorful throughout the cooking process.
When cooking the pasta, reserve a cup of the pasta cooking water before draining. You can use this starchy water to adjust the consistency of the sauce if it becomes too thick. Simply add a little at a time until you reach the desired creaminess.
