Cook Onions

Start by sautéing thinly sliced onions with olive oil on medium heat until they're a light golden brown color. Stir frequently to make sure they don't stick to the bottom of the pan.

Helpful Tips

– Let the pasta simmer in the sauce covered but stir occasionally so it doesn't stick together. – To avoid dry chicken, do not overcook it before adding in the broth. – Any large skillet will work with this recipe, but I love using a stainless steel skillet with taller sides. – Use a small grater for the garlic instead of cutting it with a knife.
