Cooking steps
- Boil a large pot of salted water for the linguine.
- When boiling, add the linguine to the water and bring back to the boil.
- Cook until softened, 10-12 mins.
- Once cooked, drain in a colander and pop back in the pot, off the heat.
- Drizzle with oil and stir through to prevent sticking.
TIP: If you’re in a hurry you can boil the water in your kettle.
- Meanwhile, halve, peel and thinly slice the onion.
- Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).
- Finely chop the chives (use scissors if you prefer).
- Place a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.
- Add the chicken and onion. Season with salt and pepper. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and equipment after handling raw chicken. Chicken is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.
- Fry until chicken is cooked through, 8-10 mins.
- Add the garlic and oregano to the pan and fry for 1 min.
TIP: Notice a stronger smell from your chicken? Don’t worry, this is normal due to packaging we use to keep it fresh.
- Stir in the stock and 75ml water (per 2P).
- Add the spinach to the sauce a handful at a time until wilted and piping hot, 1-2 mins.
- Add 1 tbsp butter (per 2P) and stir until both have melted, 1-2 mins.
- Remove the pan from the heat and stir through the creme fraiche.
- Stir the cooked linguine into the sauce along with half the chives.
- Season with salt and pepper.
TIP: Loosen the sauce with a splash of water if required.
- Share the cheesy Alfredo style chicken linguine between bowls.
- Sprinkle with cheese and the remaining chives.
- Finish with a drizzle of balsamic glaze.
