3.Cook on each side about 3 minutes until the temperature of the chicken is 165 + degrees.

4.When it reaches this temperature, the chicken breast is done & remove from pan

(The breast is thin so it will not take too long to cook.)

That sounds really good. Do both toppings end up being mixed together with the pasta? If so, is there an advantage to keeping them separate like that?

That sounds very similar to my recipe, except mine does not have heavy cream. The capers and butter are the key ingredients.
