Chicken and Chorizo Pasta

Ingredienti

• 3 cups penne
• 1 pound chicken breasts
• 1/2 cup diced chorizo
• 3 cloves chopped garlic
• 1 cup creme fraiche
• 3 sun dried tomatoes
• 1/2 teaspoon dried basil
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/8 teaspoon red pepper flakes

Preparazione

1. 1

   Boil pasta in a pot of water following the package instructions.

2. 2

   Dice chicken into bite sized pieces, and sauté in a skillet with some cooking spray or vegetable oil, as well as all the seasoning.

3. 3

   When the chicken is almost cooked through, add diced sun dried tomatoes, garlic and chorizo. Sauté for another minute, or until fragrant.

4. 4

   Finally, add creme fraiche, and remove the dish from the heat. The creme fraiche will warm up, and does not have to be cooked.

5. 5

   Drain off most of the excess water from the cooked pasta, leaving only a few tablespoons worth of liquid in the pot.

6. 6

   Add the chorizo and chicken sauce to the pasta, and stir to combine thoroughly.
