Smoked chicken pasta al forno

Smoked chicken pasta al forno

We love a pasta “al forno” (in the oven, okay, it's fancy-speak for a pasta bake) because it's so family-friendly, so complete and so undemanding of mental or physical energy. This one balances smoked free-range chicken breast with sweet green peas, in a lightly creamy grain mustard and thyme-flavoured veloute, tossed through the rustic twirls of casarecce pasta. It’s finished with a handful of shredded mozzarella, ready to bake to golden, bubbling delightfulness. Throw together a green salad and dinner is served.

To Serve

A fresh green salad on the side would be a welcome addition but on a busy weeknight, you could get away with nothing at a pinch.

* We don’t add preservatives or additives to our meals – we cook with the same real ingredients you would find in your home fridge and pantry. Some of these household ingredients do contain sub-ingredients, for example Dijon mustard contains sulphites and crushed tomatoes contain citric acid. We try to find products with as few additives as possible and always list every ingredient in our meals, both here and on the label.
