Austin Weber
I cooked this dish to see if it would be good for a new menu item at my restaurant. It came out perfect. I love the lightness of the pasta without a heavy sauce and the addition of lemon to brighten it up.
Brenda Jackson
Very Salty and cooking time needs to be adjusted to 12 -15 min, 20 min dries out the chicken.
Patrick Hall
I found the chicken to be a little salty. I’d agree with Trexer in only cooking 8 oz. of the pasta.
Joshua Greene
Very simple but really fresh and delicious. The salty chicken really went well with the lemon in the pasta. The hint of sage was also a nice touch. I’d recommend only cooking 8 oz of pasta.
