This evening, I cooked a rather nice chicken and pasta dish for myself.
(For vegetarians, the chicken can easily be removed, perhaps adding a few more vegetables to the mix instead.)
Quantities can be judged to personal preference.1. Begin to cook small chunks of chicken in a pan. (med-high heat)
2. When white on both sides, add chopped red onion and (tinned) chopped tomatoes. (If using fresh tomatoes, be sure to add some form of liquid too!)
3. Stir well until the chicken and onions are coated in tomato.
4. Add Basil, Oregano and salt. Stir in a leave to reduce on low heat.
5. Boil some water. (You may want to start this around when stirring the chicken)
6. Add fresh Tagliatelle to the boiling water. Cook for 1 or 2 minutes
less than instructed.
7. When 'finished' add the pasta to your other pan. This is where liquid content is crucial, as the pasta will burn otherwise. Keep the pan at a very low heat.
8. Stir together for about 1 minute, then serve, adding extra salt or grated parmesan if preferred.
9. Eat. Enjoy.
