Ingredients
- 200 g pasta I used farfalle
- 1 chicken breast
- 1 brown onion diced
- 100 ml cream
- 100 g parmesan cheese grated
- 50 g butter
- 4 cloves garlic crushed
- 600 ml chicken stock
- 100 ml white wine
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
Seasoning
- ½ tsp dried oregano & thyme optional
- 1 tbsp blackened seasoning
Blackened Seasoning (if making yourself)
- ½ tsp smoked paprika
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- ¼ tsp cayenne
- ½ tsp dried oregano
- ½ tsp dried thyme
Essential Tools
- Chef Knives
- Chopping board
- Large deep saucepan w/ lid
- weighing/measuring utensils
- Mixing spoon
Instructions
- Drizzle chicken in oil and rub in blackened seasoning
- Sear the chicken on medium heat for approx. 3mins, flip, add a splash of water and cover with a lid and cook for 8mins
- Remove chicken, cover in a piece of foil and set aside
- Add butter, paprika, onion & garlic to the pan and cook for 2-3mins. Making sure to scrape all the good bits from the bottom of the pan
- Deglaze the pan with white wine and cook off alcohol for 1min
- Add stock, herbs & seasoning and bring to a simmer
- Add pasta and cover pot for 8-10mins (pending how long you pasta says it takes to cook), remove lid and simmer for a further 2mins
- Add cream and cook for 1-2mins until thickened
- Dice chicken into bite-sized pieces and add into the pasta along with the parmesan
- Serve with a sprinkle of chopped parsley, parmesan cheese and fresh black pepper
Notes
- don’t be scared by the chicken “burning” it’s supposed to be blackened so it does need to char a little 😉
- adding the splash of water to the chicken will stop it burning but also steam it a little keeping it tender
- you can substitute chicken tenderloins or thighs if you prefer
- my pasta took 11mins to cook (as per packet) so I cooked it for 8mins with the lid on before removing the lid for 2mins. Adjust the cooking time with the lid on according to your pastas instructions
i am not a pasta eater but i like the sound of the blackened chicken. Yep it has been a wee bit chilly here in old brissie town lately, hasn't it? But gorgeous these last few days.
