Cooking Steps
• Half-fill a large saucepan with water, add a generous pinch of salt, then bring to the boil over high heat. • Cook penne in boiling water until ‘al dente’, 12 minutes. • Reserve pasta water, (1/3 cup for 2 people / 2/3 cups for 4 people). Drain penne, then return to saucepan.
• Meanwhile, halve snacking tomatoes. • In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. • Cook mild chorizo until golden, 4-6 minutes. Transfer to a bowl. • Add snacking tomatoes, stirring, until tender, 2-3 minutes. • Add garlic paste and tomato & herb seasoning, and cook until fragrant, 1 minute.
• Reduce heat to medium, then stir in thickened cream, the reserved pasta water and cook, until heated through and slightly reduced, 1-2 minutes. • Remove from heat, add cooked penne and half the Parmesan cheese, stirring until combined. Season generously to taste. TIP: Add a splash more water if the sauce looks dry.
• Divide creamy chorizo and cherry tomato penne between bowls. • Top with remaining Parmesan to serve. Enjoy!
