Cooking Instructions
Cooking Instructions
- Boil a kettle. Heat a large frying pan with 1 tbsp oil on medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook for 4-5 mins, until golden brown.
- Meanwhile, roughly dice the onions and courgettes. Roughly chop the parsley. Add the onion, garlic paste and chilli flakes (to taste) to the chicken pan. Cook for 2-3 mins, until softened.
- Add the courgette, cream, nutritional yeast and half the cheez. Mix well and season with sea salt and black pepper. Simmer for 8-10 mins, until the sauce thickens and the chicken is cooked.
- Heat a large saucepan filled with salted boiling water on high heat. Add the penne and boil for 7-8 mins, until cooked. Add the spinach for the final 1-2 mins of cooking, then drain altogether.
- Check your chicken is cooked through by cutting a large piece in half; the flesh should be white and the juices running clear. Cook for longer if necessary.
- Stir the spinach and cooked pasta through the sauce. Serve on plates and garnish with the parsley and remaining cheez.
