Instructions
-
TO START
Heat a large fry pan, add oil and pancetta. Next add the leek and garlic and cook together for a few minutes until golden. Add the chicken and season to taste.
-
ADD THE WINE
Add the wine and allow it to evaporate. Add the tomatoes and cook for 5 minutes on a low heat. Stir occasionally.
-
COOK THE PASTA
Bring plenty of water to the boil in a large sauce pan and add rock salt. We recommend 7 grams per litre of water. Once boiling, drop the Gluten Free Spaghetti in and cook as per the instructions on the box.
-
DRAIN AND MIX
Drain the pasta 2 minutes before the suggested cooking time, saving one ladle of cooking water, and toss the pasta together with the chicken mixture for a further minute.
-
ADD PESTO AND SERVE
Remove pasta from the heat, stir through the Pesto Genovese and cooking water, mix until well combine. Serve with a drizzle of Extra Virgin Olive oil.
