Cooking Steps

Get prepped
1

• Boil the kettle.
• Half-fill a medium saucepan with boiling water and a generous pinch of salt.
• Cook fresh fettuccine until ‘al dente’, 3 minutes. 
• Reserve some pasta water (see ingredients). Drain fettuccine, then return 
to the saucepan.  


TIP: ‘Al dente’ pasta is cooked through but still slightly firm in the centre.

Start the sauce
2

• Meanwhile, trim baby broccoli and halve any thicker stalks lengthways. 
• Heat a large frying pan over high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. 
• When oil is hot, cook diced bacon, diced chicken, broccoli and sliced leek, 
tossing occasionally, until browned and cooked through, 5-6 minutes. 


TIP: Chicken is cooked through when it’s no longer pink inside. 

Bring the sauce together
3

• Reduce heat to medium, then add cream (see ingredients), garlic paste, 
grated Parmesan cheese, chicken-style stock powder and a splash of 
reserved pasta water. Cook until slightly thickened, 2-3 minutes.
• Add cooked fettuccine and plant-based basil pesto, then toss until well 
combined. Season to taste with pepper.

Finish & serve
4

• Divide creamy ‘pesto’ chicken and bacon fettuccine between bowls.
