6. Serve

Serving Suggestions
- Serve with garlic bread or a side of Caesar salad for a complete meal.

Storage and Reheating Tips
- Refrigerate: Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
- Reheat: Warm on the stovetop over low heat, adding a splash of chicken broth or cream to loosen the sauce.
- Freeze: While creamy sauces may change texture when frozen, you can freeze this dish for up to 2 months. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator before reheating.
