Ingredients

  • 200g Chicken Breast
  • 270g gluten-free pasta
  • 80g kale
  • 80g mushrooms
  • 200g chopped tomatoes
  • 9g garlic
  • 5g olive oil
  • a handful of fresh basil
  • 50g mozzarella
  • 10g olive oil
  • 8g parmesan

Method

  1. 1

    Prep everything first: wash and trim the kale and mushrooms, then measure out the sauce ingredients.

  2. 2

    Cook the gluten-free pasta for 8-10 minutes, stirring often, and rinse briefly to stop it sticking.

  3. 3

    Season the chicken breast, butterfly it so it cooks evenly, then grill or pan-sear over medium-high heat for 5-6 minutes per side until the juices run clear (75°C in the thickest part).

  4. 4

    Gently fry the garlic in the olive oil, add the chopped tomatoes and simmer for 10-12 minutes until rich. Tear in the basil at the end.

  5. 5

    Meanwhile, steam or stir-fry the kale and mushrooms for 3-5 minutes until just tender with a little bite.

  6. 6

    Build the plate: gluten-free pasta first, then the veg and chicken breast, spooning over any remaining sauce. Finish with the parmesan.

  7. 7

    Bulking upgrade: add the mozzarella, olive oil for extra energy-dense calories.
