Featuring a hot, umami blend of Calabrian chillies and peppers, this 'Nduja is completely meat-free but with all the same flavour. It pairs perfectly with the chicken breast and creamy filling of our spinach and ricotta tortelloni.

Boxes and ingredients are packed in facilities that handles Peanut, Nuts, Sesame, Fish, Crustaceans, Milk, Egg, Mustard, Celery, Soya, Gluten and Sulphites. Due to the war in Ukraine, it has been necessary to substitute sunflower oil with rapeseed oil in some products without a label change. The FSA have advised that allergic reactions to rapeseed oil are rare.

c) Add the creme fraiche, veg stock paste, honey and water for the sauce (see pantry for both amounts). Season with salt and pepper.
d) Bring to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer until thickened, 5-6 mins. IMPORTANT: Cook so there's no pink in the middle of the chicken.
