Recipe by Chef Erling Wu-Bower

INGREDIENTS

  • • 1 box (340g) ZENB Fusilli Pasta made from 100% Yellow Peas, uncooked
  • • 1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-size pieces
  • • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • • ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • • 2 cloves garlic, sliced
  • • 125ml white wine
  • • 400g cherry tomatoes, halved
  • • 100g drained, oil-packed roasted red peppers, chopped
  • • 100g chopped basil
  • • 100g chopped Italian parsley
  • • 75g cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • • 1 small lemon, juiced

INSTRUCTIONS

1.

Cook ZENB Pasta as directed on package. Drain. Season chicken with salt & pepper.

2.

Meanwhile, heat oil in large skillet on medium-high heat until shimmering. Add chicken to skillet in single layer. Cook, undisturbed, 2 min. or until browned on one side. Stir; cook 2-3 min. until done. Transfer chicken to clean plate.

3.

Reduce heat to medium; add garlic. Cook 1 min. stirring constantly. Add wine; cook 2-3 min. until liquid is reduced by half. Stir in chicken and any juices, pasta, tomatoes and peppers; cook 1-2 min. until heated through. Remove pan from heat. Add remaining ingredients. Mix gently until cheese is melted and well combined.

Tasty Tips

Add 1 tablespoon butter to skillet with the herbs for an extra velvety sauce.

Oil-packed roasted red peppers are readily available online or at well-stocked grocery stores. Water-packed roasted peppers make a great substitute.

 Substitute low-sodium chicken stock for the white wine.
