Ingredients

  • 140g Chicken Thigh
  • 160g pasta
  • 80g kale
  • 80g courgette
  • 200g chopped tomatoes
  • 9g garlic
  • 5g olive oil
  • a handful of fresh basil
  • 8g parmesan

Method

  1. 1

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

  2. 2

    Cook the wholewheat pasta in salted boiling water for 10-12 minutes until al dente; save a splash of pasta water.

  3. 3

    Toss the chicken thighs in half the sauce and roast at 200°C (180°C fan) for 22-25 minutes, until caramelised at the edges and cooked through.

  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 courgette for 3-5 minutes until just tender with a little bite.

  6. 6

    Build the plate: wholewheat pasta first, then the veg and chicken thigh, spooning over any remaining sauce. Finish with the parmesan.
