ingredients serve 2
2 chiken breasts fillet cut into small pieces
2 cloves garlic finely chopped
200gr mushrooms
130gr pesto
50gr pine nuts
400-or 500 pasta tagliatelle
6 cubes of frozen spinach or fresh spinach
2 tablespoon oil
salt and pepper
method
Add the pine nuts to the pan till they become toasted . Do not allow to burn
Heat a large frying pan with the oil .
Heat a large frying pan with the oil . Make sure the oil is hot before adding in the garlic and some pieces of the chicken. I would advise that you sear the chicken pieces till they achieve a golden brown and crispy covering . This gives extra taste is achieved but not moving the chicken around the pan too much . Remove from pan when cooked through Add the remaining pieces in small amounts so you achieve same light brown , tasty crisp texture on all the chicken pieces . Once chicken pieces are ready , add the sliced mushrooms and once fried also put aside
Add the spinach to an and heat well . Remove all water reduce by frying . Remove all water residue from frying .
Once pasta is cooked drain and add the pesto in the same pan and stir till pasta is evenly covered .
Finally add the garlic , chiken , mushrooms . this is a nutrisitious healthy meal that can be enyoyed by all the family . I also like to make bigger portions so I have leftovers for the children’s school as it is also tasty serve cold .
