Part 6/9:
Final Touches and Serving
The sauce has a luscious texture—thick but silky—perfectly coating the pasta and chicken. The lemon and butter combine to create an irresistible aroma, while the cheese adds a salty, umami depth.
The dish is best enjoyed immediately, but it can sit for about 20 minutes before serving; just give it a gentle stir and perhaps a splash of pasta water to regain moisture.
The Cooking Experience and Tips
Throughout the process, careful attention to pan temperature and timing is emphasized. Proper heating ensures a good sear without overcooking the chicken, and the addition of pasta water helps achieve a creamy yet balanced consistency.
