Instructions
- Bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil. Cook the pasta according to the package. Add the peas for the last 2 minutes. Drain and toss with a small amount of oil to avoid sticking. Set aside.
- Place a large skillet over medium heat. Add the cooked chicken cubes and stir until just crisp.
- Add the minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds, or until fragrant.
- Add the cream cheese, ricotta, salt, pepper, and optional red pepper flakes. Stir until thickened and smooth.
- Add the cooked pasta and stir to coat it completely.
- Garnish with grated parmesan and fresh dill if desired. Serve immediately.
Notes
- This sauce is thicker than a typical Alfredo-style sauce and will cling to the pasta. For a looser sauce, add pasta water or broth.
- Short pasta like rotini, penne, or cavatappi works well.
