Grilled chicken in creamy pasta is simple, rich, and tasty. I usually make it up during the nice weather because the chicken is so nice when it’s grilled. Believe me, the chicken combined with the creamy pasta chicken and spices is absolutely out this world. As always, let us know what you think.
There are a few cooking tips to this recipe. First, you can alter the amounts of the spices according to you liking. For example, if you’re an onion or garlic lover, you can always add a little more. I use heavy cream, but if you’re diet conscious you can use cream with a little less fat. Having said that, your sauce will be a bit more watery. The squeeze of lemon at the end is fairly important as it give the dish a pop of freshness. If you don’t have a BBQ or grill, you can fry the chicken in a pan. It’s so much nicer grilled, however.
