Mod de preparare
Pas cu pas
- 1
In a medium bowl, combine the chicken pieces with the garlic and red pepper flakes designated for the marinade.
Aproximativ 5 min.
Nota bucătarului: A resealable plastic bag also works well for marinating.
- 2
Mix well to coat the chicken, then cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight for more flavor.
Aproximativ 2 ore
Nota bucătarului: If you're short on time, even 30 minutes of marinating will enhance the flavor.
- 3
When ready to cook, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
Aproximativ 10 min.
- 4
Cook the pasta according to package directions until al dente, then drain.
Aproximativ 10 min.
Nota bucătarului: Reserve about a cup of the starchy pasta water before draining to help adjust the sauce consistency later.
- 5
While the pasta is cooking, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-low heat.
Aproximativ 1 min.
- 6
Add the garlic and red pepper flakes for the sauce and cook gently for 1 minute until fragrant, making sure the garlic does not burn.
Aproximativ 1 min.
Nota bucătarului: Infusing the oil with garlic and chili at a low temperature builds a deep flavor base.
- 7
Add the sliced onions to the skillet, increase heat to medium, and sauté until soft and tender, about 8-10 minutes.
Aproximativ 10 min.
- 8
Add the marinated chicken to the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, until browned on all sides and cooked through.
Aproximativ 8 min.
Nota bucătarului: Avoid overcrowding the pan; cook the chicken in batches if necessary to ensure it browns rather than steams.
- 9
Pour the heavy cream into the skillet and bring to a gentle simmer.
Aproximativ 3 min.
- 10
Reduce the heat to low and let the sauce simmer for 3-5 minutes to thicken slightly. Season with salt and black pepper.
Aproximativ 5 min.
- 11
Add the cooked pasta to the skillet and toss well to coat everything in the creamy sauce.
Aproximativ 2 min.
Nota bucătarului: If the sauce is too thick, stir in a splash of the reserved pasta water until it reaches your desired consistency.
