Creamy Garlic Chicken Pasta
A rich, creamy pasta made with clean ingredients in around 15 minutes.
Ingredients
- 4 heaped tsp The Paste Co. Garlic Herb Paste
- 1kg chicken breast, diced
- 300ml double cream
- 500g pasta of your choice
- 1 tbsp olive oil or ghee
- Fresh parsley, to garnish (optional)
- Parmesan, to serve (optional)
Method
- Coat the diced chicken with around 2 heaped tsp of Garlic Herb Paste. For even more flavour, leave to marinate for 10 minutes if time allows.
- Cook the pasta according to the packet instructions. Reserve a little pasta water before draining.
- Heat the olive oil or ghee over a medium-high heat and cook the chicken until lightly browned. Remove from the pan and set aside.
- In the same pan, add 2 heaped tsp Garlic Herb Paste and cook for 1 minute.
- Pour in the 300ml double cream and stir until smooth. Simmer gently for 2–3 minutes. If you prefer a thinner sauce, add a splash of the reserved pasta water.
- Add the cooked pasta and return the chicken to the pan. Toss everything together until the pasta is evenly coated in the creamy garlic herb sauce.
- Garnish with fresh parsley then serve immediately.
