  • 1/4 cup cheese (or to preference)

Method

  4. Add garlic & mix.
  5. Then add the chicken & cook till water evaporates.
  6. Add black pepper, sweetcorn, peppers, mixed herbs, green chillies & salt. Mix & cook for a few minutes. Turn off the heat.
  7. Prepare white sauce by adding butter, flour & milk in another pot. Keep stirring, making sure there are no lumps. Bring to a boil.
  8. Turn off the heat & season with pepper, salt & cheese.
  9. Add white sauce to chicken mixture. Add Philadelphia cheese/ cream if you wish too.
  10. Add pasta to the mixture & combine well.
  11. Lay in a oven proof dish, sprinkle cheese & oregano. (Optional)
  12. Just before serving preheat oven to 180c & bake till cheese melts. (Optional)

Tips:

  • If you would like the pasta to remain saucy add the pasta to the white sauce just before putting it in the oven.
  • When reheating the pasta, add the pasta with a splash of milk & reheat on low heat. This will allow all the white sauce to release!
