Ingredients
CHICKEN AND BACON BOWS
- 350g farfalle pasta
- 1 head broccoli, florets and stalks finely chopped
- 1 brown onion
- 1 carrot
- 1 clove garlic
- 2 teaspoons farfalle spice mix
- 450g chicken and bacon mince
- 1 can chopped tomatoes
- 70g tomato paste
- 1 cup chicken stock
TO SERVE
- 35g parmesan cheese
Steps
-
a large pot of salted water to the boil
-
Cook pasta in pot of boiling water for 10–12 minutes, until just tender. Add broccoli for final 2–3 minutes of cook time and cook until bright green and tender. Drain and drizzle with olive oil to avoid pasta sticking.
-
While pasta is cooking, prepare the vegetables. Finely dice onion; grate carrot; roughly chop garlic. Heat a drizzle of oil in a fry-pan on medium-high heat.
-
Cook onion and carrot for about 4 minutes until tender. Add garlic and farfalle spice mix and cook for about 1 minute, until fragrant. Add chicken and bacon mince to pan and cook for 4–5 minutes, breaking up mince with a wooden spoon as it cooks, until browned.
-
Add chopped tomatoes, tomato paste and stock to pan with mince mixture. Bring to a boil then reduce to medium heat and simmer for 4–6 minutes, until thickened slightly. Season to taste with salt and pepper. While sauce is simmering, grate parmesan cheese.
-
Return drained pasta to pot it was cooked in and stir through mince mixture until combined.
-
Spoon chicken and bacon farfalle between bowls and sprinkle over parmesan cheese.
