Cooking Steps

PDF

1

• Boil the kettle.
• Half-fill a large saucepan with boiling water and add a generous pinch of salt.
• Cook spinach & ricotta tortellini over high heat until ‘al dente’, 2-3 minutes.
• Reserve pasta water (see ingredients). Drain tortellini and return to the saucepan.

TIP: ‘Al dente’ pasta is cooked through but still slightly firm in the centre.

2

• Meanwhile, halve lemon.
• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Cook diced bacon, chicken breast strips and soffritto mix, breaking up with a spoon, until golden, 5-6 minutes.

TIP: The chicken is cooked when it is no longer pink inside.

3

• Reduce heat to medium, then stir in light cooking cream and the reserved pasta water until slightly thickened, 1-2 minutes.
• Remove pan from heat, then add cooked tortellini, baby spinach leaves and basil pesto, gently tossing to combine. Add a squeeze of lemon juice and season to taste with salt and pepper.
