Cooking Steps

Cook the spaghetti
1

• Boil the kettle.
• Half-fill a large saucepan with boiling water with a pinch of salt. Cook spaghetti in 
boiling water, over high heat, until ‘al dente’, 9 minutes.
• Reserve some pasta water(see ingredients), then drain and return spaghetti to 
the saucepan with a drizzle of olive oil. 
Little cooks: Older kids can help add the pasta to the saucepan under adult 
supervision. Be careful, the water is boiling! 

Cook the chicken
2

• Meanwhile, halve snacking tomatoes. Cut chicken breast into 2cm chunks.
• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over high heat. When oil is hot, 
cook chicken and soffritto mix, tossing occasionally, until browned and cooked 
through, 5-6 minutes.
• Add snacking tomatoes and cook until slighly softened, 1-2 minutes.
• Add garlic paste, tomato paste and Nan’s special seasoning. Cook until 
fragrant, 1 minute. 

Make the sauce
3

• Reduce heat to medium, then add stock concentrate, light cooking cream and 
some reserved pasta water. Cook until slightly thickened, 1-2 minutes.
• Stir through cooked spaghetti and season to taste with salt and pepper. 

Finish & serve
4

• Divide creamy chicken spaghetti between bowls.
• Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and a pinch of chilli flakes (if using) and tear 
over parsley to serve. Enjoy! 
Little cooks: Help tear over the parsley

Review summary

Updated on July 2026
  • Flavour: Most customers found this dish delicious, with the creamy tomato sauce and hint of chilli a standout combination. Some found it mild or bland, and suggested adding extra chilli flakes or a soft cheese to boost the flavour.
  • Ease of prep: This is a genuinely quick and easy weeknight meal, though a few noted it can take longer than 15 minutes when followed carefully.
  • Suggestions: Cook the chicken separately first to avoid it going chewy, then build the sauce in the same pan. Roasting the tomatoes beforehand, shredding the chicken, or stirring through extra cheese are popular ways to lift the dish.
  • Leftovers: At least one household had enough left over for work lunches the next day, though several families found the portions just right with nothing to spare.
  • Portions: For two people, some found the spaghetti quantity generous, while families with kids appreciated the serving size.
