Cooking Steps

Cook the Pasta
1
  • 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, 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.

Fry the Chicken
2
  • Place a large pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.
  • Once the oil is hot, add the chicken to the pan and season with salt and pepper.
  • Fry until golden brown on the outside and cooked through, 8-10 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and equipment after handling raw chicken and its packaging. Chicken is cooked when no longer pink in the middle. Once cooked, remove from pan and set aside.
Soften the Pepper
3
  • Meanwhile, halve the pepper and discard the core and seeds. Slice into thin strips.
  • Halve, peel and chop the shallot into small pieces.
  • Once empty, give the pan a wipe, then return to high heat with a drizzle of oil.
  • Once the oil is hot, add the pepper and shallot and fry until softened, 3-4 mins. Continue to stir while it cooks.
  • In the final min of cooking time, add the Cajun spice and fry until fragrant, 1 min.
Make the Sauce
4
  • Stir in the passata, creme fraiche, stock, red wine jus, ½ tsp sugar (per 2P) and 75ml water (per 2P).
  • Simmer for 6-8 mins. 
  • Add a splash of water if the sauce is too thick. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
Coat the Chicken
5
  • Just before serving, stir the chicken and drained pasta into the sauce.
  • Toss well and season to taste with salt and pepper, if required.
Garnish and Serve
6
  • Share the Cajun pasta between plates.
  • Finish by sprinkling over the Italian cheese.
