For a glossy, restaurant-style finish, stir in a pat of cold butter into the sauce just before serving.
For meal prep, cook the noodles al dente so they don’t turn mushy when reheated. If the sauce separates upon storage, whisk in a little warm cream or broth when reheating.
To save time, prep the garlic and seasonings in advance so everything comes together quickly when you’re ready to cook.
How to Store
Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Keep the noodles and sauce separate if possible to maintain texture.
When reheating, add a splash of broth or cream to revive the sauce’s consistency. The chicken may dry out slightly, so cover with a damp paper towel when microwaving.
For longer storage, freeze the creamy chicken (without noodles) for up to 2 months. Thaw overnight in the fridge before reheating on the stovetop over low heat.
Avoid freezing the noodles, as they can become grainy and soft when thawed. Cook fresh noodles when ready to serve.
To reheat, use a skillet over low heat to prevent curdling. Stir frequently and avoid boiling to keep the sauce smooth. If the dish seems too thick after storage, adjust with a little milk or broth.
Garnish with fresh herbs after reheating to brighten up the flavors.
