Notes
Cook chicken slightly longer for crispier edges or lower heat for softer texture. Freeze chicken and sauce separately from noodles for easier reheating. Toss noodles gently during assembly to prevent breaking. Customize flavors with mushrooms, broccoli, chili flakes, or mozzarella. Store leftovers refrigerated for up to four days and reheat slowly with extra broth for creamy texture.
