HelloHero: Creamy Chicken & Leek Fusilli

with Baby Spinach & Parmesan

10 min
Difficulty: 1/3
Italian

Once you realise how quickly you can make a creamy pasta sauce from scratch, you'll never use the jarred stuff again. In this weeknight winner, the herby chicken, tender spinach and 'al dente' pasta happily soak up the garlic and herb-laced sauce, which gets an extra boost of flavour from our signature Aussie spice blend.

Preparation

• Cook fusilli in the boiling water until 'al dente', 11 minutes. • Reserve some pasta water (1/2 cup for 2 people / 1 cup for 4 people), then drain fusilli and return to saucepan. TIP: 'Al dente' pasta is cooked through but still slightly firm in the centre.

• Meanwhile, heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. When oil is hot, cook chicken and leek, tossing occasionally, until browned and cooked through, 5-6 minutes. • Add garlic & herb seasoning and Aussie spice blend and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. • Add light cooking cream, baby spinach leaves and cooked fusilli to the pan. Cook, stirring, until cream is warmed through (when no longer pink inside) and spinach is just wilted, 1-2 minutes. • Season with salt and pepper to taste. Remove pan from heat. TIP: Add some reserved pasta water to the pan if the sauce looks too thick!

• Divide creamy chicken and leek fusilli between bowls. • Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese to serve. Enjoy!
