Ingredients

  • 2 Chicken breast
  • 2 tsps Paprika
  • 1 tsp Garlic granules
  • ½ tsp Salt
  • ½ tsp Pepper
  • 2 tbsps Cooking oil
  • 20 g Butter
  • 1 Onion diced
  • 4 Cloves of garlic chopped
  • 150 ml Chicken stock
  • 300 ml Double cream
  • 80 g Parmesan
  • 1 Bunch of parsley chopped
  • 250 g Pasta I used tagliatelle

Instructions

  • If you're using dried pasta, then boil the pasta as per the packet instructions.
  • Slice the chicken in half lengthways so you have four thinner breast fillets.
  • Place the chicken into a bowl and add in the paprika, garlic granules, salt and pepper. Drizzle some oil in and mix until the fillets are completely coated.
  • Heat some oil and the butter in a large frying pan. Pan fry the chicken over a medium heat for 3-4 minutes on both sides. Once cooked, remove the chicken from the pan and set it aside. Cut it into strips.
  • Pan fry the diced onion for a few minutes until it starts to soften. Add in the garlic and cook for a further minute.
  • Now pour in the chicken stock, let it bubble away for a minute and then pour in the double cream.
  • Add the parmesan, give it a stir and then add the chicken back into the pan. Leave it to simmer so that the cream thickens.
  • If you're using fresh pasta then drop the pasta into salted boiling water, cook until it's 'al dente'.
  • Add the pasta into the sauce along with some of the pasta water, mix it well.
  • Add in the chopped parsley and season to taste.
  • Dish it up and finish with a sprinkle of parmesan.

    Love this man and his recipes!
    This one is a firm favourite of ours – my 16 yr old daughter cooks it for us often and everyone we’ve cooked it for loves it too 😊

    Another recipe which didn’t disappoint, fresh and tasty with such good flavours. I do like the dish to be a little saucy if you like it this way maybe worth leaving it a bit runny as it soon gets sucked up into the pasta when left. Absolutely loved it. Where has this chef been……can’t wait for the cookbook.
