Creamy Roasted Garlic & Pulled Chicken Breast Tortiglioni

Preheat the oven to 220°C/ 200°C (fan)/ gas 7, then take your chicken out of the fridge, open the packet and let it air

Add your garlic to a piece of tin foil with a pinch of salt and a drizzle of olive oil, then scrunch the foil around the garlic to form a tightly sealed parcel

Add the parcel to a baking tray and put the tray in the oven for 15-20 min or until the garlic has softened – this is your roasted garlic

While the garlic is cooking, boil a kettle

Heat a large, wide-based pan (preferably non-stick with a matching lid) with a drizzle of olive oil over a high heat

Once hot, add your chicken with a generous pinch of salt and pepper and cook for 3 min on each side or until lightly browned

(Doubled your protein? Use 2 pans!)

Meanwhile, dissolve your chicken stock mix, soft cheese and roasted garlic paste in 100ml [130ml] [150ml] boiled water – this is your creamy garlic stock

Once the chicken has browned, add the creamy garlic stock to the pan

Reduce the heat to medium-high and cook, covered, for 10-12 min or until the chicken is cooked through (no pink meat!)

While the chicken is cooking, add your pasta to a pot of boiled water and bring to the boil over a high heat

Cook the pasta for 7-9 min (10-12 min for wholewheat) or until cooked with a slight bite

Once done, drain the pasta, reserving a cup of the starchy pasta water

Wash your salad, then pat it dry with kitchen paper

Dice your tomato[es]

Combine your white wine vinegar with a drizzle of olive oil in a bowl with a pinch of salt and sugar – this is your dressing

Carefully squeeze the roasted garlic out of the skins and mash with a fork, discard the skins

Once the chicken is cooked through, transfer it to a clean board and shred apart using two forks – this technique is known as 'pulling'

Return the pulled chicken back to the pan with the mashed roasted garlic, drained pasta and a splash of starchy pasta water

Give everything a good mix up – this is your creamy roasted garlic & pulled chicken pasta
