- Prepare the Sauce:
- In a large skillet, melt the butter over low heat.
- Add the minced garlic and finely chopped shallot, sautรฉing them until they are fragrant and translucent.
- Stir in the chopped poblano peppers.
- Make it Creamy:
- Pour a small amount of chicken stock into the skillet with the pepper mixture.
- Add the cream cheese and stir until it melts into a creamy consistency.
- Combine and Season:
- Slowly add the remaining chicken stock, stirring until the sauce is smooth.
- Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
- Mix in the grated parmesan cheese, ensuring it melts into the sauce.
- Finish the Dish:
- Add the cooked fusilli pasta to the skillet and toss until the pasta is well-coated with the sauce.
