One Pot Get Freaky Chicken Pasta

Author Julie Cavanagh

Ingredients

  • 250 g pasta shells
  • 1 red onion, diced
  • olive oil
  • 500 g boneless chicken thigh
  • 100 g sundried tomato strips
  • 200 g feta
  • 1/4 cup pitted olives (optional)
  • 1/2 bag baby spinach
  • 2 tbsp Get Freaky Tzatziki
  • 1/2 cup cream
  • 3.5 cup chicken stock
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice

Instructions

  1. Dice onion and sauté in a standard casserole or large pot with a lid, in a drizzle of olive oil 

  2. Add dice chicken thigh and continue to sauté over a medium heat for a minute or two 

  3. Add Tzatziki mix 

  4. Stir in sundried tomatoes 

  5. Add uncooked pasta to the pot 

  6. Add chicken stock and 3/4 of the block of feta. Give a stir and break the feta up a little bit. Cover with a lid and reduce the heat to medium low and simmer for 20 min, stirring a few times during. If at any point it seems too dry add an additional 1/4-1/2 cup of water. Various pasta brands take different amounts of cooking so you may need a touch more liquid 

    Tip- we just use salt reduced chicken stock powder and mix it up with boiling water. Hot stock will kickstart the cooking

  7. After 20 min the pasta should be cooked. The feta will have broken up into the sauce, it is not split! 

  8. Add the baby spinach and stir through 

  9. Stir in cream. Simmer over a medium high heat uncovered for a minute or two to wilt spinach.

  10. Taste the sauce and then season with Man Grind to taste. This will all depend on how salty your feta is.

    Add lemon juice, stir and serve.

    Serve with remaining feta crumbled on top
