Story behind the recipe:
Allergy Girl had planned to make this for them as a special treat because she had been working a lot and hadn't cooked for the Chef in a while. What started as a sweet gesture turned into a funny and adorable misunderstanding. She had told him she was going to make it for dinner, they went shopping, came back, and he excitedly started prepping. He pretty much took over the project, and he seemed so excited about it that Allergy Girl just let him do his thing.
She started to feel a little bummed out because she was really excited to make him something special that she knew she could make. She only knew how to make two fancy meals (at least ones she knew he would enjoy), this was one of them. She was secretly hoping that she could impress him this one, but now one out of two was gone from the options. He noticed she seemed a little down, and so she told him what happened. He felt so bad about it and offered for her to take over, but she saw how excited he had been to make it and wouldn't dream of taking that away from him. She asked if she could just make the pasta because she had a new idea she wanted to try, and he happily agreed.
They made this meal as a team, and enjoyed it as a special dinner. So maybe you make this as a team with your family or loved one. Some things are better done together, and we believe this is one of them. Whoever likes to get messy should be in charge of coating the chicken, the person who wants an easy job in charge of the pasta, and we recommend you put the bravest person on frying the chicken... or maybe designate a person to provide a shield to whoever is frying it because... watch out. ;) If you're cooking it alone or no one is brave in your group, YOU GOT THIS! We believe in you!
