21... Qa5
I thought this was a clever move. Black still loses the piece, but my opponent is very resourceful.

 
22. Bd3
Aiming at the weak g6-square.

Discovering a defender on the pinned piece, but there is a nice tactical shot which causes the Black position to collapse.

 
23. Nc6
Here I win back my material and retain the attack. Black is objectively lost.
