Cooking Instructions and Tips

Bring a large saucepan of water to the boil with 1/2 tsp salt for the linguine. Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).
When boiling, add the linguine to the water and bring back to the boil. Cook until tender, 12 mins.
Once cooked, drain in a colander and pop back in the pan. Drizzle with oil and stir through to stop it sticking together.

Meanwhile, heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on medium-high heat.
Once hot, add the chicken, season with salt and pepper and stir-fry until browned all over, 5-6 mins.
Add the bacon lardons and stir-fry until golden, 4-5 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw meat and its packaging.

Add the garlic to the pan and stir-fry until fragrant, 30 secs.
Pour in the creme fraiche, water for the sauce (see ingredients for amount) and chicken stock paste.

Bring to a boil, then turn the heat down and simmer until thickened slightly, 3-4 mins. IMPORTANT: The chicken is cooked when no longer pink in the middle. Cook lardons thoroughly.

Stir the cooked pasta, peas, butter (see ingredients for amount) and half the Parmigiano Reggiano into the sauce. Cook until the peas are piping hot, 1-2 mins.
Taste and season with salt and pepper if needed, then remove from the heat. TIP: Add a splash more water if it's a little thick.

Share the ultimate creamy linguine alfredo between your bowls.
Sprinkle over the remaining Parmigiano Reggiano and serve the rocket on the side with a drizzle of balsamic glaze to finish. Enjoy!
