Can I use frozen chicken?

Yes, you can! If you’re using frozen chicken breasts, just add an extra hour or two to the cooking time to ensure they cook through properly.

Can I use a different sauce?

Absolutely! If you can't find the Buffalo Wild Wings Parmesan Garlic Sauce , feel free to substitute it with Alfredo sauce or a homemade garlic Parmesan sauce.

Can I make this dish ahead of time?

Yes! You can prepare the sauce and chicken ahead of time, then simply reheat and add fresh pasta when you're ready to serve.

How do I store leftovers?

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. To reheat, add a splash of milk to keep the sauce creamy.

What pasta works best with this recipe?

Penne , fusilli , or rotini are all great choices because their shapes hold onto the sauce. However, feel free to use any pasta you have on hand.
