Cooking Steps

Roast the Pepper
1
  • Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.
  • Boil a large pot of salted water for the rigatoni. TIP: If you’re in a hurry you can boil the water in your kettle.
  • Halve the pepper and discard the core and seeds. Chop into 2cm chunks, then pop onto a lined baking tray.
  • Drizzle with oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat, then roast on the top shelf of the oven until tender and slightly charred, 20-25 mins.
Boil the Pasta
2
  • When boiling, add the rigatoni 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.
  • Pop the garlic (unpeeled) into a small piece of foil.
  • Drizzle in a little oil then scrunch to enclose.
Fry the Chicken
3
  • Halfway through the pepper roasting time, pop the garlic parcel onto the same baking tray. Roast until softened, 10-12 mins.
  • Place a large pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.
  • Once hot, fry the chicken until cooked, 8-10 mins. Remove once cooked. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and equipment after handling raw chicken and its packaging. Chicken is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.
  • Drain the halloumi then cut into slices (3 per person).  Fry until golden, 2-3 mins each side.
Start the Sauce
4
  • Return the pan to medium-high heat.
  • Add the chopped tomatoes, muscat and Central American spice.
  • Mix in ½ tsp sugar (per 2P) and 50ml water (per 2P). Season with salt and pepper then bring to the boil.
  • Simmer, stirring occasionally, until thickened, 4-5 mins.
  • Add the spinach to the sauce, a handful at a time, stirring until wilted and piping hot, 1-2 mins.
Finishing Touches
5
  • Once the garlic is roasted, allow to cool, then squeeze the flesh out of the skin. Mash with the back of a fork and stir into the sauce.
  • Once the pepper has roasted, stir it through the sauce along with the fried chicken.
  • Add a knob of butter and pop in the cooked pasta into the sauce.
  • Season to taste with salt, pepper and sugar. Add a splash of water to loosen the sauce if you feel it's too thick.
Finish and Serve
6
  • Divide the roasted pepper rigatoni between bowls.
  • Drizzle over the chipotle sauce onto the pasta.
