Let's make a Creamy Chicken Pasta

Let's make creamy chicken pasta. Let's go. So first I'm going to bring a large pot of water to boil and I'm just going to season this with some salt. I am using store-bought pasta today. So we're just adding a little bit of salt to seasoning the water and I'm going to allow the water to boil before we add our pasta. So our water has come to a boil. This is the pasta I'm using today. I think it's cabelli. So I'm just adding that in there. That's about 400 grams. I'm just going to give that a stir and I'm going to cook this for approximately eight minutes and then I'm going to shock this in cold water to stop the cooking. So while the pasta is cooking I am going to prep our chicken. So our pasta is now cooked. I'm going to drain this and just rinse it in some cold water to stop the cooking process and we're going to be using the same pot to cook our chicken and our sauce. So the same pot back to the stove. I'm adding a little bit of cooking oil. This is some avocado oil and we're going to be adding some butter. You can be generous with the butter. This is 450 grams of chicken fillets that I sliced into stir fry pieces and a bite size which is easier and I've drizzled some avocado oil and some lemon and garlic pepper seasoning and some rosemary herbs from the garden. So we're just going to now lightly stir fry this so we're just stirring the chicken. We don't want to overcook the chicken. Just giving this a light mix and we're going to allow it to cook for another five minutes before we add the peppers. I'm not adding mushrooms today but you could add mushrooms. So our chicken is almost cooked. At this point I'm going to be adding a large green pepper from the garden and some fresh rosemary. As I said you could add mushrooms or you could leave out the peppers totally. I'm just going to give this a mix and allow these flavors to combine. This is going to take another five minutes to cook and I'm just going to be adding a little bit of salt and pepper at this point. Not too much. You can add more if needed. So the chicken is cooked. We're just giving this a quick mix. We don't want those peppers to get too soft. It's good to have a bit of crunch and the juices from the chicken we need that to make our sauce as well. So I'm going to be adding a teaspoon of freshly chopped garlic. I don't like using garlic out of a container because it's not a hundred percent in most cases. Very seldom it's a hundred percent. Usually there's a lot of fillers in there. So that was the garlic that went in and then this is the cream. This is three quarter cups of cream. I'm just going to give this a mix and then I'm going to add the pasta. This is the pasta. I'm just going to break that up and I've also reserved a half cup of the pasta water which we're adding in and this is 60 grams of parmesan or parmesan cheese that we're adding in. I'm just going to give all this a mix. That cheese is going to thicken the sauce as well. So I'm going to allow this to cook for another two minutes and then we're done with the cooking. So I'm just adding a little bit more cream going in with another half a cup. Just giving this a mix and we're going to test for seasoning and switching our stove off. So that's our pasta ready. We're now ready to plate up. There you have it. Our pasta is now ready to serve and it serves about four people.
