Cooking Instructions and Tips

Get Prepped
1

Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7. Fill and boil your kettle.

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

Brown the Chicken
2

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

Once the oil is hot, add the chicken. Season with salt and pepper, then cook until browned all over, 5-6 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw chicken and its packaging.

Simmer the Sauce
3

Add the chicken stock paste, chopped tomatoes (see ingredients for amount) and boiled water for the sauce (see pantry for amount) from your kettle to the chicken.

Stir in the dried oregano, bring to the boil, then reduce the heat to medium until the sauce is simmering.

Cook, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has thickened and the chicken is cooked, 12-15 mins. IMPORTANT: The chicken is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.

Cook the Pasta
4

Meanwhile, add the pasta to the pan of boiling water and bring back to the boil. Cook until tender, 12 mins.

When the pasta is cooked, drain in a colander and return to the pan. Mix in the creme fraiche and season with salt and pepper.

Assemble and Bake
5

Once the chicken is cooked, stir through the peas, then transfer to an ovenproof dish.

Top with the creamy pasta and cover with the hard Italian style cheese.

Bake on the top shelf of your oven until the top is golden and a little crispy at the edges, 10-12 mins.

Serve
6

When ready, share your chicken pasta bake between your bowls.

Enjoy!
