Cooking Steps

Cook the orecchiette
1

• Half-fill a large saucepan with water, add a generous pinch of salt, then bring to the boil over high heat. Cook orecchiette in boiling water until ‘al dente’, 11 minutes. Reserve some pasta water (1/4 cup for 2 people / 
1/2 cup for 4 people). Drain and return to saucepan. 

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

• In a large frying, heat a drizzle of olive oil over high heat. When oil is hot, cook chicken and mushrooms, tossing occasionally, until browned and cooked through, 6-8 minutes. • Add garlic & herb seasoning, tomato paste and the butter and cook until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. • Add orecchiette, baby leaves and the brown sugar. Stir to combine and season with a pinch of pepper. TIP: Chicken is cooked through when it’s no longer pink inside.
