  • Creamy Chicken & Spinach Pasta | I love recipes that come with a dash of nostalgia and this one never fails to deliver. In what now feels like another life, I was in a band with my Swedish pal Jonathan and, while staying at his place, I picked up this great recipe from his family. Ingredients from @dunnesstores 💛

    Serves: 4
    Time: 30 mins

    300g tagliatelle
    1 tbsp olive oil
    A knob of butter
    400g skinless chicken breasts, sliced into thick strips
    3 garlic cloves, peeled and finely chopped
    50g ready-to-use sun-dried tomatoes
    150g baby spinach leaves
    250ml single cream
    Parmesan shavings, to serve 
    Basil leaves, to serve
    Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper 

    1. Cook the pasta according to the instructions on the packet. Heat the butter and olive oil in a large frying pan and, when foaming, fry the chicken for about 4–6 minutes or until cooked through. Season with salt and pepper before adding the garlic, sun-dried tomatoes, spinach and fry until the spinach has wilted.
    2. Add the cream and bring to a steady simmer for 3–4 minutes. Once the pasta is cooked, drain and add to the sauce. Toss well and serve straightaway with some fresh basil leaves & Parmesan shavings.6d

This is the simplest of all sauces to make, and none has a purer, more irresistibly sweet tomato taste. I have known people to skip the pasta and eat the sauce directly out of the pot with a spoon.

How to Make It

Step

Put either the prepared fresh tomatoes or the canned in a saucepan, add the butter, onion, and salt, and cook uncovered at a very slow, but steady simmer for 45 minutes, or until the fat floats free from the tomato. Stir from time to time, mashing any large piece of tomato in the pan with the back of a wooden spoon. Taste and correct for salt. Discard the onion before tossing the sauce with pasta. Serve with grated Parmesan.

Notes

May be frozen when done. Discard the onion before freezing.

Recommended pasta: This is an unsurpassed sauce for Potato Gnocchi, but it is also delicious with spaghetti, penne, or rigatoni.
