Instructions

• Boil the kettle. • Thinly slice leek. Thinly slice apple into wedges. • Pour boiled water into a large saucepan over high heat with a pinch of salt. • Cook fusilli in boiling water until ‘al dente’, 12 minutes. • Reserve some pasta water (1/2 cup for 2 people / 1 cup for 4 people). Drain fusilli, then return to saucepan.

• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over high heat. • Add diced chicken, diced bacon and leek and cook, tossing occasionally, breaking up with a spoon, until golden, 5-6 minutes • SPICY! This is a mild spice blend, but use less if you're sensitive to heat! Add All-American spice blend and cook, until fragrant, 1 minute.
