Instructions

Cook the Pasta
1

Bring a large saucepan of water to the boil with 1/2 tsp salt.

When boiling, add the linguine to the water and bring back to the boil. Cook until tender, 12 mins.

Garlic Prep
2

While the pasta cooks, peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).

Fry the Bacon
3

Heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on medium-high heat.

Once hot, add the diced chicken and bacon lardons and stir-fry until golden, 4-5 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw meat. Cook bacon thoroughly.

Stir in the garlic and cook for 1 min more.

Make your Creamy Sauce
4

Stir the water for the sauce (see pantry for amount), chicken stock paste and creme fraiche into the bacon.

Bring to the boil, then lower the heat and simmer until thickened, 5-6 mins. IMPORTANT: The chicken is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.

Meanwhile, once the pasta is cooked, drain in a colander and pop back in the pan. Drizzle with oil and stir through to stop it sticking together.

Stir and Combine
5

Once the sauce has thickened, stir through the cooked pasta, peas and the cheese.

Taste and season with salt and pepper if needed. Add a splash of water if it's a little thick.

Finish and Serve
6

Share the creamy bacon and chicken linguine between your bowls.

Top with a handful of rocket and drizzle with the balsamic glaze to finish.

Enjoy!
