Instructions

Step 1

In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook pasta according to package instructions; drain well.

Step 2

Poach Chicken Breast Take chicken out of the fridge before cooking. *200g/8oz each chicken breast - leave in water 20 minutes, must be fully thawed.

Step 3

Fill a saucepan with water so the chicken breast will be well submerged with at least 2" / 5cm of water above it in a single layer. *Optional - add flavourings. DO NOT add salt or anything with salt in it. Will affect boiling point and cooling rate of water = might affect chicken cooking through properly.

Step 4

Bring water to boil.

Step 5

Place chicken breast in water, place lid on, bring back up to the boil. IMMEDIATELY remove saucepan from stove and set aside for 20 - 60 minutes it's fine, won't overcook.

Step 6

Remove chicken from water. Slice and be amazed how perfectly juicy and tender the breast is!!

Step 7

For the Sauce Melt butter in sauce pan, add garlic and stir for 2 mins. Add all the sauce ingredients and whisk until smooth. Bring to a simmer and cook until thick about 6-7 mins.

Step 8

Stir in pasta until well combined then place the chicken and sprinkle more shredded cheese on top. Serve immediately.
