Required Kitchen Tools

When making my 54th Street Rattlesnake Pasta, having the right tools on hand makes cooking stress-free and enjoyable. Here are the essentials I use:
  1. Large Skillet or Sauté Pan: Wide enough to cook the chicken, veggies, and sauce together.
  2. Stockpot: For boiling pasta until al dente.
  3. Sharp Chef’s Knife: To slice vegetables and chicken evenly.
  4. Wooden Spoon or Silicone Spatula: For stirring without scratching your skillet.
  5. Colander: To drain pasta easily.
With these simple tools, you’ll breeze through this restaurant-style pasta recipe.
