    Nicky, you’ve done it again!
    I only cook pasta for my husband as I’m not a fan of either tomato sauce or cream sauce
    But I had all the ingredients in the fridge/cupboard and made it for our meal tonight
    We both had second helpings
    I loved it, not sure if I’m a complete pasta convert, but if anyone can convert me, you and your amazing recipes can!
    Thanks Nicky 😋

    @nomadtom2420 3 роки тому

    I love these recipes but a bit iffy about how things are cooked properly on stovetop such as the onions and peppers and chicken. Imagine if the chicken was seasoned and seared first and then the onions and peppers allowed to soften till fragrant, garlic added to the mixture then; followed by tomato paste - sautéed for a tad till aromatic then the canned tomatoes added, simmered for a touch before adding the heavy cream. Wow the flavours would be mind blowing!! Imma make it like this.

    Can you suggest a substitute for the pasta? I'm trying to avoid all wheat products. Do you think I could replace it with potatoes? Have you tried it as a chicken and veg bake (broccoli, potato, beans, squash etc)?
