Ingredients

• 250g Taglioni (any shape will do)

• 200g of skinless, boneless chicken breasts, cut into diced

• 2 tbsp of high-quality olive oil

• 1 tbsp of garlic powder

• 1/2 tbsp dark soy sauce

• 2 tbsp sesame oil

• Salt to taste

• Sugar to taste (optional)
• 1 tsp chili flake or chili oil
• Sesame seed for garnish
• 1/2 cup salted butter
• 5 cloves garlic, minced
• Fresh parsley for garnish

Detailed Instructions

How to cook the pasta: First, you need to fill the pot with water and heat it on the oven until it starts boiling. Then, you can add some salt to the pot. Cook the noodles as mentioned on the box until the white spaghetti turns into an al dente texture, then shut off the heat and let it drain for a couple of minutes to get rid of any remaining moisture.

Deal with the chicken: In the meantime, the noodle is to be boiled. Start by the chicken with black pepper, a little salt, sugar or garlic powder with parsley flakes. To start off, warm the olive oil in a large horizontal frying pan over medium heat. Place the chicken in the frying pan and cook it for 5-6 minutes by turning over them if they are golden brown on the other side. Get them out of the frying pan and finally put them in a safe place

Prepare Garlic Butter Sauce: After that the dish is done, add the butter into the same dish, and let it heat up over the middle flame while stirring the garlic along with it, which will take around one to two minutes, and till then you are sure to get a pleasant smell of garlic. Then, gradually add the parmesan to the sauce until it starts to dissolve.

Mix It All: Use your left hand to toss the noodle and the user to cook it better and put it in the garlic butter saucepan. When the ingredients are taken from the jar, the pupils mix them with the food in the pot by adding chicken and the rest of the seasoning to the pot.

1. Serve: Provide separately the Garlic Noodles in bowls. As well, add some chopped parsley and sesame seed on top of them too. Enjoy and share!

Tips and Variations

Protein Alternatives: Recently, many people have the feeling of not eating meat. I would like to advise you to think creatively about the precise replacement of the chicken. To be a vegetarian you can easily take mushrooms to be chicken or even shrimp. 

Pasta Options: I used taglione or fettuccine for many of its recipes and they turned out great, I have also tried penne. Creamy spaghetti dishes can also be tried once! Before I forget I have even managed to get my own artistic versions like being inspired by the angel hair pasta and serving it with Broccoli and cauliflower. 

Add Some Heat: You might also like to give yourselves something spicier by dipping them into the garlic butter. What I did was to add the recommended red pepper flakes into the butter as I wanted to combine the dish with flavor and a little bit of spiciness. 

Make It Creamy: Garlic, together with the subsequent addition of a thin stream of heavy cream, can be another way to proper the present lensing of the sauce towards a rather rich and buttery texture. This is why I am very into it. They look amazing, are tasty, and insanely easy to make.

Veggie Boost: Would you get an extra serving of a bright dish? I was intending to use the cherry tomatoes or the spinach as the last pair at one point.
