Quick and easy chicken and broccoli pasta ready in 15 minutes - a kid-friendly favorite!
Ingredients:
  • 400g dried orecchiette
  • 36.40 gm extra virgin olive oil
  • 500g Australian Chicken Tenderloins, thinly sliced diagonally
  • 1 head broccoli, cut into small florets
  • 2 garlic cloves, crushed
  • 1 tsp dried chilli flakes (optional)
  • 25g parmesan
  • 40g almond
Instructions:
  • Cook the pasta in a large saucepan of boiling water according to the instructions on the packet until it is al dente. Drain the pasta, saving ½ cup (125ml) of the cooking liquid.
  • Heat 2 tsp of oil in a large non-stick frying pan until sizzling. Cook half of the chicken, stirring occasionally, for 3 mins until golden and cooked. Transfer to a plate, cover to keep warm. Repeat with the remaining chicken using 2 tsp of oil.
  • Heat the remaining oil in a pan until sizzling. Add the broccoli and cook for 3 minutes until vibrant green. Stir in the garlic and chili (if desired) and cook for an additional 2 minutes until fragrant.
  • Combine the chicken with the pasta, reserved cooking liquid, and ¼ cup (20g) Parmesan in the pan. Toss to mix well and season to taste. Serve the pasta mixture in individual bowls and top with almonds and the remaining Parmesan.
