Cooking steps

Get Prepped
1
  • Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.
  • Boil a large pot of salted water for the rigatoni.
  • Halve the bell pepper and discard the core and seeds. Slice into thin strips.
  • Roughly chop the parsley (stalks and all).
Brown the Chicken
2
  • Place a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.
  • When hot, add the chorizo, chicken and bell pepper. Season with salt and pepper. IMPORTANT: Wash hands after handling raw chicken and its packaging.
  • Cook, shifting occasionally, until the chicken is browned all over, 5-6 mins.
Cook the Pasta
3
  • Meanwhile, add the pasta to the pot of boiling water and cook until softened, 10-12 mins. 
  • When the pasta is cooked, drain in a colander and return to the pot, off the heat. 
Simmer the Sauce
4
  • Meanwhile, add the dried thyme, stock, 25ml water (per 2P) and passata to the pan with the chicken.
  • Bring to the boil, then reduce the heat to medium. Season with salt and pepper
  • Simmer until the sauce has thickened and the veg is softened, stirring occasionally, 12-15 mins. IMPORTANT: Chicken is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.

TIP: Loosen the sauce with a splash of water if you feel it's too dry.

  • Season to taste with salt and pepper.
