Chicken Pasta

🇮🇹 Italian

Springy noodles, tender chicken and a savoury-sweet glaze, tossed together in minutes. About 27 minutes from fridge to table.

Prep 12 min Cook 15 min Serves 2 Easy

Ingredients

  • Chicken500 g, thighs
  • Saltto taste
  • Garlic3 cloves, minced
  • Tomato Sauce2 tbsp
  • Olive Oil2 tbsp
  • Parmesan Cheese60 g, grated
  • Spaghetti320 g
  • Spring Onions3, sliced
  • Noodles250 g

Optional extras

  • Fresh Basilhandful, to finish

Instructions

  1. 1

    Salt a big pot of water until it tastes like the sea, slide in the Chicken, and stir for the first few seconds so nothing sticks.

  2. 2

    In a second pan, melt the butter with Noodles until it foams gently — this is the flavour base, so keep the heat soft.

  3. 3

    Stir in Garlic and cook until just tender, scraping up anything golden from the pan's floor.

  4. 4

    Reserve a cup of pasta water, then drain the Chicken two minutes early and tip it into the sauce pan.

  5. 5

    Let the two marry over brisk heat, loosening with splashes of pasta water until the sauce glosses every strand.

  6. 6

    Plate with a generous snowfall of cheese, a drizzle of raw olive oil, and eat while it's steaming.

Chef's tip

Taste and adjust the salt at the end; sauces concentrate as they reduce.
