Ingredients

1 Chicken breast per person (chopped into bite size chunks)
1 Handful of Chorizo (chopped into rings and skinned)

Half pint of milk (I prefer semi-skimmed)
Thumb of butter
2 tbs plain flour
Salt and pepper to taste
Tagliatelle (or pasta of your choice)

Level of difficulty Easy
Cost Budget Friendly

Preparation

Step 1

Cook the pasta in a pan of boiling water as per the packets instructions

Step 2

Fry the chicken in a saucepan or deep frying pan until cooked through, add the chorizo chunks.

In a seperate bowl melt the butter and stir in the flour (add a little at a time to prevent lumps) and gradually add in the milk.

Add this to the chicken pan and stir continuously (otherwise it will start to solidify) once this is hot and starting to thicken add in the cheese and greens and season with the salt and pepper.

Add this to the pasta and stir together for a delicious quick and easy meal!!

If you want a shortcut you could use a jar of white sauce or some double cream but these are both a bit too rich for my taste.
