Steps

  1. In a gallon (4 liters) of boiling salted water, cook pasta to al dente.
  2. Drain pasta and rinse with cold water. Toss with chicken and set aside.
  3. Melt 30 ml butter in a medium saucepan over medium high heat. Once bubbling ceases, add flour and cook, whisking continuously until mixture turns light blonde in color.
  4. Add remaining sauce ingredients. Bring to a simmer and reduce heat to low. Drizzle over pasta mixture and serve warm.
