Preparación

  1. Season the chicken

    • Pat the chicken dry and pound to an even thickness.

  2. Boil the pasta

    • Boil the rigatoni in salted water until just shy of al dente.
    • Save at least 1/2 cup pasta water before draining, then set the pasta aside.
    Paso 2

  3. Sear the chicken

    • Heat a large pan over medium heat for a few minutes, add olive oil and increase to medium-high.
    • Add the chicken and sear for 3–4 min per side until golden, reducing the heat if needed, and cook through.
    • Set aside to rest.
    Paso 3

  4. Build the sauce base

    • Reduce the heat to medium, melt the butter in the same pan, scraping up the fond.
    • Add the shallot and cook for 5 min.
    • Add the garlic and cook for 1 more min.
    Paso 4

  5. Make the creamy sauce

    • Reduce the heat to medium-low and slowly pour in the cream.
    • Add the chicken bouillon powder, paprika, garlic powder, Italian seasoning and black pepper, then simmer for 2–3 min.
    • Reduce the heat to low, add the Parmesan and stir until smooth.
    Paso 5

  6. Toss and serve

    • Add the pasta and 1/4 cup pasta water, tossing over low heat until the sauce is silky, adding more pasta water as needed.
    • Slice the chicken, add it on top and finish with more Parmesan and fresh parsley.
