Ingredients

200g spiral pasta
1 tbs olive oil
2 large (4 small) chicken breasts
1 brown onion, finely diced
1 clove garlic, crushed
2 rashers bacon, sliced
1 cup Massel* Chicken Style Liquid Stock

Method

Step 1

Cook pasta according to packet instructions. Drain and set aside.
Step 2

Meanwhile, heat oil in a large skillet pan. Slice chicken into 3 or 4 escalopes and season well with salt and pepper. Cook for 1-2 minutes each side until well-browned. Set aside.
Step 3

In the same pan, cook onion, garlic and bacon for 4 minutes until onion is soft. Pour in stock and bring to the boil. Whisk in sour cream. Return to the boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes until slightly thickened and reduced by about a third. Stir through cheeses then return chicken to pan. Simmer for another 5 minutes until chicken is cooked through. Add pasta and chives to the pan, and stir to coat well. Serve with extra cheese.
