I don't really like chicken in my pasta but this recipe is the ultimate exception. I love using super thin chicken breasts so that the sauce is easily absorbed throughout each piece and it's less meaty than a giant thick chicken breast. Pro tip, whenever I have enough time and want to take things to the next level, I'll soak the chicken breasts in a salt water brine for a couple hours and add a few fresh lemon slices to the brine too - it makes the chicken way more tender. (Brine ratio is always 1tbsp salt: 1 cup water.) This is a big recipe and I used a whole pound of pasta. If you want to make less, I wouldn't change anything except cooking less pieces of chicken breast and less pasta, you'll just end up with a little more sauce which is never a bad thing. PS - If you're trying to cut carbs you can make the chicken without any breading or pasta and just eat it with the buttery lemon sauce! What you need:

how high is the heat supposed to be when you cook the garlic and then when you add the chicken?

Hi! Every stove is different so kind hard to pin point it because it depends on if you have gas or electric stove, but i use electric and I have it on medium heat for adding the chicken and then once you flip it the chicken, turn it down to low.

A little confused. Doesn't pouring the liquid and THEN flipping the chicken make the bottom of the chicken soggy, and thus prevent it from getting crispy?
