Peri Peri Macaroni

Step 1/ 5

• 300 g chicken thighs (boneless)

To begin with, take the chicken breasts and slice them into bite-sized pieces.

Step 2/ 5

• 1¼ tbsp cooking oil

• saucepan

In a saucepan, add the oil and sauté the chicken until cooked. This would ideally take about 7-10 mins, stirring intermittently. Because I’m based in England, I’m using Tesco’s pre-marinated peri-peri chicken but you can feel free to marinate your meat however you may prefer it. My suggestion would be some turmeric, salt, a dash of paprika, lemon juice, ginger garlic paste, some ketchup/sriracha and some Chili flakes.

Step 3/ 5

Transfer the cooked chicken to a dish and allow to cool.

Step 4/ 5

• 250 g macaroni
• 1½ tsp salt

In the same saucepan, add salt and water and boil your macaroni as per the instructions on the packet. I’m using Tesco’s macaroni but feel free to choose any type of pasta you prefer. Allow the pasta to boil for about 10-12 minutes then strain and keep aside.

Step 5/ 5

• 100 g tomato basil sauce

Add the chicken to the pasta and stir and bring it back on a low heat. Stir in the bolognese sauce and allow it to simmer lightly, making sure the pasta doesn’t stick to the bottom. Top with grated mozzarella and serve hot!

Enjoy your meal!
