Baking Tips
For extra richness, add a splash of white wine to the sauce before adding the Boursin cheese.
Use different Boursin cheese flavors like Shallot & Chive or Black Pepper for variations.
For a protein boost, add grilled chicken, shrimp, or crispy pancetta.
If the sauce thickens too much, add a bit more reserved pasta water to loosen it.
