Get ready to indulge in a mouth-watering white sauce pasta with spring chicken, a recipe that's as easy as it is delicious. Published on August 31, 2019, this dish requires minimal ingredients and can be prepared in no time.
For this recipe, you'll need:
- 500g pasta, boiled
- 600g spring chicken, cut into two
- 3 limes, halved
- 1 teaspoon black pepper, crushed
- 1 teaspoon garlic ginger paste
- 1 teaspoon salt to taste
- 30g butter
- 3 tablespoons plain flour
- 1/2 teaspoon oil
- Fresh coriander
- 1 cup light coconut milk
Here's what you need to do:
Start by marinating the spring chicken with lime juice, adding in the garlic ginger paste and salt to taste. Sprinkle half of the black pepper and rub the marinade all over the chicken, ensuring even distribution.
Next, pan-sear the spring chicken in a non-stick pan over medium heat for about five minutes on each side. Once browned, remove from heat and place in the oven at 180°C for another 20 minutes.
While the chicken is roasting, melt the butter in another pan over medium heat. Add the flour and whisk until smooth, then add in the light coconut milk. Whip up the mixture until thick, adding the remaining black pepper and salt to taste.
Finally, add the boiled pasta to the sauce and mix well, being careful not to mash the pasta. Squeeze some extra lime juice and add some freshly chopped coriander. Serve the chicken over the pasta and enjoy!
