Creamy garlic chicken pasta

My favourite! If there's mushrooms, garlic and cheese then I'm there! Plus it takes 30 minutes to make which is a bonus!

Ingredients:

300g chicken breast, diced

100g penne pasta (uncooked)

4 tbsp garlic & herb cream cheese

300g mushrooms, sliced

Spinach, 2 large handfuls

4 garlic cloves, sliced

1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

4 tbsp parmesan & a little to sprinkle on top

Method:

• Heat oil in a frying pan over a medium heat and add the diced chicken.

• In a pot, add the penne pasta and boil until fully cooked - al dente.

• Meanwhile, once the chicken is almost cooked, add the mushrooms and garlic. Mixing thoroughly before adding in the cream cheese and continue to mix through!

• Once fully cooked, add the spinach and a tbsp of the pasta water (if needed) into the chicken sauce and add the pasta, mixing together.

• Add in the parmesan and mix through.

• Serve with a season of black pepper and grate some fresh parmesan over the top.

• Makes 2 portions.
