Cooking Steps

Get prepped
1

• Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. Boil the kettle. • In a small bowl, add the butter and allow to come to room temperature. • Trim asparagus and roughly chop. Finely chop garlic. Zest lemon to get a pinch and slice into wedges. • To the butter, add half the garlic. Season with salt and pepper and mash to combine.

Make the garlic bread
2

• Cut deep slices across wholemeal panini, taking care to not slice all the way through, at 1cm intervals. • Push garlic butter into panini slices and wrap in foil. • Place panini directly on wire oven racks and bake until heated through, 8-10 minutes.

Cook the fettuccine
3

• Meanwhile, in large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over high heat. • When oil is hot, cook diced chicken and asparagus, tossing occasionally, until browned and cooked through, 5-6 minutes. TIP: Chicken is cooked through when it's no longer pink inside.

Make the sauce
4

• Meanwhile, pour boiled water into a large saucepan with a pinch of salt. • Cook fettuccine in the boiling water, over high heat until ‘al dente’, 3 minutes. Reserve some pasta water (1/2 cup for 2 people / 1 cup for 4 people). Drain and return to the saucepan.

Make the salad
5

• To the chicken and green beans, add garlic & herb seasoning and remaining garlic and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. • Reduce heat to medium-low, add cream, chicken-style stock powder, a generous squeeze of lemon juice and the reserved pasta water, and simmer until slightly reduced, 1-2 minutes. • Remove pan from heat, add cooked fettuccine, lemon zest and chargrilled capsicum relish, and stir to combine. Season to taste.

Serve up
6

• Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, combine mixed salad leaves and a drizzle of balsamic vinegar and olive oil. Season to taste. • Divide chicken and asparagus fettuccine between bowls. • Serve with mixed leaf salad, garlic bread and remaining lemon wedges. Enjoy!
