Spice Girl's Pasta Primavera with roasted Chicken!
LOve y'all girls...!!
Here is my pasta ..super easy...super yummy...an easy Italian dish made with a touch of spice girl magic!
Ingredients:
1. Any pasta. You can buy any type. Do not try the angel hair type ( looks like vermicelli) because it might make the dish mushy. But try any other bigger types ... Take two handful of it to make a lunch for four people in the family.
2. Vegetables which can be stir fried. Take carrot, beans, zucchini,Squash types, cherry tomato, onion, cauliflower and any other vegetables which can be fried. When you take tomato make sure its not too ripe and soft. You need a firm tomato.
3. Chicken legs. There are many ways you can prepare chicken for this dish. Make sure that you marinate the chicken with the spices you like before cooking it. I would use normal Indian fry marinade and put it in freezer or fridge for at-least few hours. If you don't have time just marinate it for few minutes.
4. Cheese. Any of your type. Any amount that you want
5. Any leaf garnish you want, Any sauce you may need as a side.
Method:
1. Cook pasta in boiling water with some oil and salt. Oil will help the pasta not to stick together. Keep it aside. It should be Al dente ( firm to the bite style, not too much cooked). After the pasta is cooked drain it and keep it aside in a bowl.
2. Cook the chicken. You can put it in a cooker, pan fry it or roast in a oven. If you are pan frying the chicken, use very less oil. After the chicken is done use a fork or spoon to pull the meat and mix the meat with the oil in the pan. The flavors of the chicken would be in the pan and we need that. So use as much less oil as possible. I would suggest oven roasting. But if you don't have oven use pan. If you don't need a fried chicken taste just put it in the cooker and cook it to get a much softer chicken. If you are roasting it in oven, pour some oil on the chicken before you put it in oven. After the chicken is done the way you want, keep the meat aside in a bowl.
3. Take a big pan and add some oil or butter. Add onion first and fry it, then add the vegetables one by one and add tomato last. vegetables should not be squished. It should be done in stir fry style. After the vegetables are done, add the fried chicken meat to this. Add enough salt if needed. Add some pepper or oregano or any seasoning if you need it. Mix chicken and vegetables nicely together. Now add the pasta in the bowl. Take two big spoons and mix everything nicely with it. Make sure the chicken and vegetables and pasta are mixed nice and well.
4. Now sprinkle the cheese on top of this whole dish. Use a good amount if you like cheese. Use low fat cheese to make our mind and stomach happy... :-)
5. Garnish with malliyila or mint ..not necessary ..but only if you like it...!
The dish should look similar or better than this!
