This comforting dish pairs chicken, meaty mushrooms and slightly sweet truffle oil with a simple but stellar sauce. The peppery rocket, sweet pear and sharp Parmesan are perfect for balancing out the richness of the dish.

1 packet

1 packet
vegetable stock pot
1 bag

1 drizzle
truffle oil
1 packet
chicken breast
1 packet
light cooking cream
(Contains: Milk;)
½
pear
1 bag

1 packet
fettuccine
(Contains: Gluten, Wheat; May be present: Eggs, Soy.)
1 packet

(Contains: Milk;)
1
olive oil
20 g

(Contains: Milk;)
1 drizzle
balsamic vinegar
½ tsp
honey
• Bring a medium saucepan of salted water to the boil. • Finely chop garlic. Roughly chop silverbeet. Thinly slice pear. Cut chicken breast into 2cm chunks. • Cook fettuccine in the boiling water until 'al dente', 9 minutes. Drain, reserving some pasta water (1/2 cup for 2 people / 1 cup for 4 people), then return pasta to the saucepan.
TIP: 'Al dente' pasta is cooked through but still slightly firm in the centre.
• Meanwhile, heat a large frying pan over high heat with the butter and a drizzle of olive oil. Cook sliced mushrooms, tossing, for 2-3 minutes. Add chicken and cook until browned and cooked through (when no longer pink inside), 5-6 minutes. • Add garlic and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. • Reduce heat to medium. Stir in light cooking cream and vegetable stockpot. Simmer until thickened, 1-2 minutes.
• Add silverbeet, fettuccine, 1/2 the grated Parmesan cheese and 1/2 the reserved pasta water to the pan. Toss to combine. • Remove pan from heat. Add a splash more pasta water to loosen the pasta, if needed. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside. • Just before serving, combine the honey with a drizzle of balsamic vinegar and olive oil in a medium bowl. Season, then add pear and salad leaves. Toss to coat.
• Roughly chop parsley leaves. • Divide creamy mushroom fettuccine between bowls. Drizzle some truffle oil (if using) over the pasta to taste. Sprinkle with parsley. • Sprinkle remaining Parmesan over pasta and salad. Serve pasta with pear and Parmesan salad. Enjoy!
TIP: Truffle oil has a strong flavour. Add less, or leave it out, if desired.
