If you’ve managed to save some leftover chicken from your last meal, you may be tempted to just snack on it until nothing’s left. However, hold that though — there’s a way to transform those scraps into a truly magnificent platter of pasta!
Simply follow this recipe to make a delicious plate of chicken pasta that’s light and filling, without the heaviness of a creamy sauce!
Ingredients
- 1 cup or so cooked chicken
- 1 small red onion
- 1 medium yellow capsicum (or red or green) Sliced to suit
- 1/2 cup peas
- 1 cup sliced mushrooms
- 2 tsp cornflour
- Chicken stock or water
- Pasta, cooked.
Method
- Fry onion in butter and/or rice bran oil until slightly softened. Add rest.
- When cooked to your liking add chicken. Sprinkle cornflour to absorb fat then stir in sufficient liquid to thicken slightly. Toss in cooked pasta of choice.
- Add condiments of choice — I prefer chicken herb seasoning.
- Shredded cabbage is nice in this too. It’s really just adding, tasting, adding, tasting!
