While the chicken rests, focus on the sauce by melting butter in a pan and cooking the minced garlic until it smells amazing. Add heavy cream and chicken broth, letting it simmer before stirring in the mozzarella and parmesan cheeses until smooth and creamy.

3-Don’t forget the pasta cook 300 grams of spaghetti according to the package until it’s al dente for the perfect bite.

Notes

๐ŸŒก๏ธ For extra crispy vegetables, don’t overcrowd the baking sheet – use two sheets if needed to ensure proper roasting
๐Ÿ Reserve ยฝ cup of pasta cooking water before draining to thin the sauce if it becomes too thick after adding the cheese
๐ŸŒถ๏ธ Adjust the chili flakes according to your spice preference, or omit them entirely for a milder flavor that kids will love
