🥄 Texture
The dish has tender, bite-sized chicken pieces and long, ribbon-like tagliatelle that should be slightly al dente with a pleasant chew. The tomato sauce is thick and slightly chunky from canned/fresh tomatoes, coating the pasta for a cohesive, saucy mouthfeel.
👃 Aroma
A warm, savory tomato fragrance dominated by garlic and olive oil greets the dish, with background herbaceous notes from the Italian seasoning. The smell is comforting and savory, with a hint of roasted garlic and concentrated tomato from the paste.
🍷 Pairs Well With
Pair with a medium-bodied, high-acidity red like Chianti or Sangiovese to complement the tomato acidity; alternatively, a crisp Pinot Grigio or sparkling water with lemon works well for a non-alcoholic option.
🥗 Side Dishes
Serve with a simple mixed green salad with a vinaigrette to cut the tomato richness, and garlic bread or crusty bread for sopping the sauce. Roasted seasonal vegetables or a light Caesar salad are also good complements.
