Instructions

Prep Time
1

Put a large saucepan of water with 1/2 tsp salt on to boil for the pasta.

Halve, peel and thinly slice the shallot. Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).

Trim the courgette. Use a peeler to peel long ribbons down the length of the courgette, stopping at the spongy centre.

Finely chop the chives (use scissors if easier). Zest and halve the lemon.

Cook the Pasta
2

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

When ready, reserve some of the pasta water (see pantry for amount), then drain in a colander.

Pop the pasta back into the pan, drizzle with oil and stir through to stop it sticking together.

Stir-Fry the Greens
3

Meanwhile, heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on medium heat.

Once hot, add the courgette ribbons and season with salt and pepper. Cook until softened, 2-3 mins, then stir in the garlic and cook for 1 min more.

Add the spinach a handful at a time and cook until wilted and piping hot, 1-2 mins.

Once cooked, transfer everything to a large bowl and cover to keep warm.

Make the Creamy Sauce
4

Put your (now empty) frying pan back on medium heat with a drizzle of oil. Once hot, add the chicken and fry until browned all over, 5-6 mins.

Add the shallot to the chicken and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 4-5 mins.

Stir in the veg stock paste and reserved pasta water, then simmer until reduced by half, 3-4 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw chicken and its packaging. The chicken is cooked when no longer pink in the middle

Mix in the creme fraiche and heat through until piping hot, then season with pepper. Stir through the chives and three quarters of the grated hard Italian style cheese.

Combine and Stir
5

Stir the cooked pasta through your sauce along with half the greens. Add a splash of water if it's a little too thick.

Add a pinch of lemon zest and a squeeze of lemon juice. Taste and add more lemon juice, salt and pepper if needed.

Serve
6

Share the creamy pasta between your bowls and top with the remaining greens.

Finish with a sprinkle of the remaining hard Italian style cheese.

Enjoy!
