Ingredients
Serves: 4
Time: 30 minutes
- 6 chicken thighs, skinless, boneless
- A few sprigs rosemary
- 1 onion, finely chopped
- 2 garlic cloves, plus 1 extra for the breadcrumbs
- 250g mushrooms, mixed, roughly chopped
- 350g cassarecce pasta
- 900ml just boiled water
- 2 tbsps light soy sauce
- 40g butter
- 3 slices sourdough bread, slightly stale
- 100g parmesan
- Couple of handfuls of baby spinach
- Sea salt & freshly ground black pepper
Method
- First, chop chicken meat into one inch pieces. Place into a pan with a few rosemary sprigs and a drizzle of oil and fry until golden.
- Whilst the chicken cooks, finely chop the onions and thinly slice the garlic.
- Now, remove chicken from the pan and set aside, draining off any cooking juices into a separate pan for use later.
- Get the butter, along with a drizzle of olive oil into the pan you cooked the chicken in, then go in with the onions and garlic and fry everything until golden - about 5 minutes.
- Whilst the onions and garlic cook, slice up your selection of mushrooms.
- Remove the onions and garlic from the pan to the same plate as your chicken and set everything aside.
- For the mushrooms, add a little more oil to the pan and tumble the mushrooms into the pan. Using the back of a spatula, squeeze the mushrooms down until you hear them 'squeal' - then continue to press until the mushrooms start to turn golden.
- Add the chicken and onions back to the pan along with any resting juices. Give everything a quick stir then add in the pasta and hot water from the kettle. Stir in the soy sauce and cook for 10 - 12 minutes until the pasta is cooked and has absorbed most of the liquid.
- Whilst the pasta cooks, add the butter to the frying pan that you drained the chicken fat off into and place over a medium heat. Tear the sourdough into the pan and season with salt and pepper. Add a little rosemary, some grated Parmesan and garlic and cook until golden brown, stirring occasionally.
- To finish, add the spinach and allow to wilt then stir through grated Parmesan.
- Serve in bowls topped with the breadcrumbs and some extra Parmesan.
