Ingredients:
Marry Me Chicken:
2 tbsp cornflour (cornstarch in USA)
¼ tsp salt
¼ tsp black pepper
½ tsp paprika
600 g (1.3 lbs) chicken breast, chopped into chunky pieces
2 tbsp neutral oil – I use avocado oil
1 tbsp unsalted butter
3 cloves garlic peeled and minced
3 spring onions (scallions) sliced
½ tsp chilli flakes (red pepper flakes) – You can leave the chilli flakes out if you don’t want that extra little background heat.
1 tsp dried oregano
75 g sundried tomatoes in oil drained and roughly chopped
240 ml (1 cup) chicken stock
120 ml (1/2 cup) double (heavy ) cream
1 tbsp lemon juice
50 g (1/2 packed cup) grated parmesan
10-15 fresh basil leaves roughly chopped
Pasta:
400 g (14 oz) fresh tagliatelle or 250g dried tagliatelle – see notes if using dried
To Serve:
Parmesan
Basil
Black pepper
Instructions
1. Mix the cornflour, salt and pepper together. Add the chicken and toss together to coat.
2. Heat the oil and butter in a frying pan over a medium-high heat.
3. Add the chicken and cook for 7-8 minutes, turning a couple of times until browned all over.
Meanwhile, bring a large pan of salted water to the boil for the pasta.
4. To the frying pan, add the garlic, spring onions, chilli flakes, oregano and sun-dried tomatoes. Stir together and cook for two minutes.
5. Add the chicken stock, cream and lemon juice. Stir together and bring to a gentle simmer.
6. Add the pasta to the pan of boiling water and cook as per the pack instructions (usually 2-3 minutes).
7. Drain the pasta, then add to the pan with the chicken. Add the parmesan and basil then toss together using a set of tongs.
8. Serve topped with extra parmesan, basil and black pepper.
Notes
Can I make it ahead?
Pasta dishes like these are usually best served straight away. However, if you have leftovers, you can cool, cover and refrigerate right away. It should keep well in the fridge for up to two days.Reheat individual portions in the microwave for 3-4 minutes, stirring a few times whilst reheating.You may want to add a splash of water, stock and/or cream to loosen up the pasta, as the pasta will absorb more sauce during storage and reheating.
Can I freeze it?
No, I don’t recommend freezing this pasta dish.
Ingredient swaps
– If you’d like to add some vegetables in there, add peas (just add frozen peas right to the pan) or mushrooms as you’re getting towards the end of frying the chicken, or stir in baby spinach at the end.- Replace the cream with creme fraiche for a slightly lighter version. If you’re using a lower fat version, just heat it through gently, as low fat dairy will often split (full fat creme fraiche can be boiled and simmered though).
