FAQs
Can I use a different type of pasta?
Yes, you can substitute the linguine with other pasta types such as penne, rotini, or fettuccine. Just adjust the cooking time as needed based on the pasta you choose.
What if I don’t have cooking sherry?
If you don’t have cooking sherry, you can use white wine or chicken broth as a substitute. If you prefer to omit it altogether, just increase the amount of chicken broth slightly.
