Instructions
• Boil the kettle. • Slice cucumber(see ingredients) into half-moons. Roughly chop roasted almonds. • Cut chicken thigh into 2cm chunks. Finely chop mild chorizo (see ingredients).
• In a large saucepan, add boiling water and season generously with salt and bring to the boil. • Cook fresh fettuccine, over high heat, until ‘al dente’, 3 minutes. Reserve some pasta water (1/4 cup for 2 people / 1/2 cup for 4 people). Drain and set aside.
• Meanwhile, heat a large frying pan over high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. When oil is hot, cook chicken and chorizo, tossing occasionally, until browned and cooked through, 5-6 minutes. • Add garlic & herb seasoning and garlic paste, and cook, until fragrant, 1 minute. • Add cream (see ingredients), chicken-style stock powder and a splash of reserved pasta water and cook, until slightly thickened, 2-3 minutes. • Add fettuccine and basil pesto to the frying pan and toss to coat. Season with pepper.
• In a large bowl, combine cucumber, mixed salad leaves and balsamic & olive oil dressing. Season and toss to combine. • Divide creamy basil pesto chicken and chorizo fettuccine between bowls. Sprinkle over grated Parmesan cheese. • Serve with cucumber salad. Garnish salad with roasted almonds. Enjoy!
Little cooks: Add the finishing touch and sprinkle over the cheese on top
