Smoked Chicken &Artichoke Pasta - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
500 g dry pasta
1 leek, white part only
2 1/2 tablespoons oil
2 cloves garlic, crushed
600 g smoked chicken (I have used turkey or ham too)
150 ml chicken stock
4 whole artichokes, quartered (I use the ones canned in brine and rinse them)
2 ripe tomatoes
1/2 cup toasted pine nuts (, I cook them in a dry pan over a low heat shaking them until they're golden)
salt and pepper
1 dash Tabasco sauce
Preparation
-
Cook the pasta following the directions, drain and keep warm.
Wash the leek well and slice thinly.
Heat the oil in a large pan, add the leek and garlic and cook over a medium heat stirring occasionally for about 10 minutes.
Add the chicken, stock, artichokes and tomatoes and cook uncovered for about 5 minutes or until the chicken is heated through thoroughly.
Stir in the pine nuts and season to taste.
Toss through the pasta to combine and serve.
