How to prepare pasta

Step 1: Preparing the chicken breast

To prepare a simple and delicious pasta with chicken, first, after removing the bones, cut the chicken breast into strips in such a way that the width of the chicken pieces is between one and two centimeters and their length is about 4 centimeters. Chopping the chicken breast in this way is to make the food more beautiful, and if you want, you can chop it as you like.

Step 2: Chop and fry the mushrooms

After chopping the chicken pieces, put them aside. After washing, cut the mushrooms into slices and set aside. At this stage, pour the mushroom with a little oil into a suitable pot.

Step 3: Add chicken to mushrooms

Put the pot on low heat. Next, fry the mushroom a little until its water evaporates completely. Then, add the chicken pieces to the pot along with some salt and black pepper and fry a little.

Step 4: Changing the color and frying the chicken

At this stage, continue roasting until the color of the chicken changes well and it is slightly fried. Then, remove the pan containing the roasted chicken and mushrooms from the heat and proceed to prepare the pasta sauce.

Step 5: Preparation of pasta sauce

For this purpose, put a suitable pot on the heat and add flour along with a little liquid oil or butter to the pot. Fry the flour a little until it changes color and becomes creamy. Then, add the milk little by little.

Step 6: Boil and thicken the sauce

Now we stir the sauce continuously until the sauce boils and thickens a little. Then, we set it aside. Next, put a pot full of water on high heat and let the water quickly reach the boiling point.

Step 7: Boil the pasta

Pour the garlic into the pot along with some salt and liquid oil. Next, pour the pasta into the pot and let it become soft and edible. Note, the cooking time of each type of pasta is written on its package. I use the little Mana routine.

Step 8: Combine chicken, mushrooms and pasta

Usually, pasta cooking time is 5 to 10 minutes. After the pasta is ready, put a suitable pot on the heat. Then, add the chicken broth to the pot along with the chicken and mushrooms that you left out in the second step.

Step 9: Add sauce and Parmesan cheese

Next, add the pasta to the pot and add the pasta sauce along with half of the parmesan cheese to the ingredients. Now, mix the pasta ingredients well so that the sauce reaches all parts of the pasta and the pasta and sauce are completely uniform.

Step 10: Final cooking of the pasta

At this stage, we put the lid on the pot and let the pasta stay on the heat for 20 to 25 minutes until it is fully prepared. During this time, it is better to gently turn the pasta several times so that the pasta does not harden or the bottom does not burn.

Step 11: Serve and decorate the pasta

After the pasta is ready, remove it from the heat. Then, put it in a suitable container. To decorate the pasta, you can use chicken pieces, chopped parsley and the remaining Parmesan cheese along with cherry tomatoes.

The pasta should be cooked a little hard so that it does not become soft and crushed when mixed with the sauce. This allows the pasta to retain its texture and taste better. The cooking time of each type of pasta is written on its package and it is better to follow it carefully. If the pasta is overcooked, it may become mushy when mixed with the sauce and lose its desired flavor and texture.

Add salt to the pasta water

To flavor the pasta, add a little salt to the boiling water. This makes the pasta flavorful. The amount of salt is usually one teaspoon per liter of water. Adding salt to the water not only adds flavor to the pasta, but also makes the sauces used stick better to the pasta and have a more uniform taste.

Before draining the pasta, save some of the cooking water and add it to the sauce. The starch in this water helps the concentration and consistency of the sauce and makes the sauce stick to the pasta better. This method is especially useful when the sauce is a little thin and can improve the taste and texture of the sauce.

Add fresh cheese

When preparing pasta, using freshly grated Parmesan cheese or other cheeses instead of ready-made cheeses gives a better taste to the pasta. Fresh cheese has a richer flavor and because of its freshness, it dissolves easily in the sauce and gives it a creamier texture. This makes the pasta more tender and delicious.
