Frequently Asked Questions

Can I substitute the goat's cheese with another type of cheese?

Yes, if goat's cheese isn't to your taste or readily available, you can substitute it with cream cheese for a milder flavor or ricotta for a lighter texture. Keep in mind that these alternatives may slightly alter the overall taste and creaminess of the dish.

Is it possible to make this dish vegetarian?

Absolutely! To create a vegetarian version, omit the roasted chicken and use a plant-based protein like chickpeas or tofu. Additionally, ensure that the vegetable stock used is free from any animal-derived ingredients.

Can I use a different type of pasta instead of penne?

Yes, while the recipe uses San Remo Penne Pasta No 18, you can substitute it with other short pasta shapes like fusilli, rigatoni, or farfalle. Just be sure to adjust the cooking time according to the package instructions to achieve the desired al dente texture.

How can I store and reheat leftovers?

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. To reheat, place the desired portion in a saucepan over medium heat, adding a splash of vegetable stock or water to loosen the sauce if necessary. Stir occasionally until heated through.
