Chicken Alfredo Tagliatelle
Fragrant grains expertly cooked with seasonal aromatics, fresh herbs, and rich stock for a satisfying, flavourful centerpiece.
Ingredients
- • 250 grams dried tagliatelle
- • 120 grams lightest cream cheese
- • 100 grams cooked chicken (visible fat and skin removed, cut into pieces)
- • 2 cloves garlic (crushed)
- • 2 tsp dried oregano
- • 50 grams frozen petit pois
- • 150 ml water (from the pan used to cook the pasta)
- • salt and pepper
- • low calorie cooking spray
Preparation Steps
Cook the pasta according to the instructions on the packet.
Spray a sauce pan with low calorie cooking spray and on a low heat, cook the crushed garlic for 2 minutes, stirring constantly to prevent it sticking.
Add the cream cheese into the pan, along with the chicken, herbs and peas. Add 150ml/1/2 cup of boiling water from the pan which the pasta is being cooked in and stir until combined.Â
Keep the sauce on a low heat, stirring frequently until the chicken is heated through and the frozen peas are cooked. Season to taste using plenty of black pepper.
Drain the pasta and stir into the sauce. Serve immediately whilst hot - top with a little Parmesan if you like it!
