- Set oven to high broil.
- Wash and dry all produce.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high.
- Roughly chop spinach.
- Halve onion, then cut into 1/4-inch slices.
- Pat chicken dry with paper towels, then season with half the Montreal Spice Blend (use all for 4 servings).
- Heat a large oven-proof pan over medium-high.
- When the pan is hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil, then chicken. Pan-fry for 1-2 min per side until golden.
- Transfer chicken to a foil-lined baking sheet. Broil in the middle of the oven for 5-6 min, until chicken is cooked through.**
- Carefully wipe the pan clean.
- To the boiling water, add fusilli. Cook for 10-12 min, until tender but still firm to the bite.
- Reserve 1/4 cup (1/2 cups) pasta water.
Strain fusilli, then return to the pot, off heat.
- Heat the same pan (from step 2) over medium.
- When the pan is hot, add 2 tbsp (4 tbsp) butter, then onions, garlic puree and spinach. Cook for 2-3 min, stirring often, until spinach wilts.
- Add cream cheese and cream. Cook for 1-2 min, stirring often, until cream cheese melts.
- Add fusilli and reserved pasta water to the pan with sauce. Season with salt and pepper, then stir to combine. Remove the pan from heat. (NOTE: If you do not have an oven-proof pan, transfer mixture to a lightly oiled 8x8-inch baking dish here; for 4 servings, use a 9x13-inch baking dish.)
- Sprinkle pasta with cheddar. Broil in the top of the oven for 4-5 min, until cheese melts. (TIP: Keep an eye on cheese so that it doesn't burn!)
- Divide pasta between plates. Top with chicken.
- Sprinkle chili flakes over pasta, if you like.
