ONE PAN ARRABBIATA CHICKEN MEATBALL TORTIGLIONI 👇
Grated Italian hard cheese (30g)
Intense chicken stock mix (5.5g)
Dried chilli flakes (0.5tsp)
Seasoned chicken mince (250g)
Panko breadcrumbs (20g)
Finely chopped tomatoes (200g)
Tomato paste (32g)
Smoked sea salt flakes (1g)
Garlic clove x3
Basil (5g)
Tortiglioni (200g)
1. Boil a kettle. Peel and finely chop (or grate) your garlic
2. Combine your chicken mince, 1/3 of the chopped garlic (you’ll use the rest later!), panko breadcrumbs and half your chicken stock mix (save the rest for later!) with a generous pinch of salt and pepper in a bowl. Give everything a good mix up until thoroughly combined. Divide and shape into meatballs (5 per person!) – these are your meatballs
3. Heat a large, wide-based pan (preferably non-stick, with a matching lid) over a high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Once hot, add the meatballs to the pan and cook for 2 min on each side or until lightly browned. Once browned, set aside on a plate and reserve the pan
4. Return the reserved pan to a medium heat. Once hot, add the remaining chopped garlic, chilli flakes and cook for 30 secs or until fragrant. Once fragrant, add your tomato paste and chopped tomatoes to the pan and cook for 2-3 min or until slightly reduced
5. Once reduced, add the remaining chicken stock mix and 500ml boiled water to the pan with 1 tsp sugar and your pasta. Give everything a good mix up, then add the browned meatballs to the pan and bring to the boil over a high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium-low and cook, covered, for 12-15 min or until the pasta is tender and the meatballs are cooked through
6. While the pasta is cooking, pick your basil leaves from their stems, then chop the stems finely
7. Once the pasta is tender and the meatballs are cooked through, add your smoked sea salt flakes, chopped basil stems and half your grated Italian hard cheese (save the rest for garnish!) to the pan with a k**b of butter. Stir it all together – this is your one pot arrabbiata chicken meatball pasta. Serve the one pot arrabbiata chicken meatball pasta and garnish with the remaining grated Italian hard cheese and basil leaves
Enjoy!
