Easy peasy chicken pasta that is cheap and great for a midweek family meal. It can be made in less than 30 minutes .Its really delicious and creamy. It can also double up as a pie filling too.

Notes on ingredients & substitutions

Chicken

I used organic chicken however buy what you can within your budget. I would recommend using boneless breast or thigh meat.

Tagliatelle

I used Seggiano Organic Gluten Free Tagliatelle from well easy take a look here. I love this pasta it doesn’t go mushy when cooked, and holds really well in sauces. Most gluten free supermarket pasta break up in sauces and also go rock solid if kept in the fridge. I was very impressed with this brand its definitely worth a try.

Stock

I make my own chicken stock however this can easily be purchased anywhere. I recommend either kallo or marigold brand as they do vegan ( dairy free), gluten free, yeast free, low salt. and no msg varieties. Take a look here, purchase from supermarkets, online or at Holland & Baratt.

Vegetables

I used mostly frozen vegetables and a little fresh broccoli. But there are no hard and fast rules here feel free to use any vegetable you prefer. If you use root vegetables be mindful that they will take longer than the chicken to cook so maybe pre cook it first.

Tips & storage

The chicken sauce doubles up as a pie filling. In fact it is pie filling and the exact recipe I would use, feel free to add dairy free cream to the recipe to make it creamier. The sauce can be reheated in the microwave or on the stove in a few minutes. To reheat the pasta you can either plunge into boiling water for a few seconds or pop in the microwave for a couple of minutes. This recipe will keep in the fridge for 4 days.

Variations

Use turkey instead of chicken.
Add tarragon to the pasta.
Use other veggies like sauteed mushrooms or asparagus.
You could bake this once cooked with some dairy free cheese on top like a pasta bake.

Makes 4 portions - 45 mins prep time
