Creamy Chicken Spaghettini

This dish never fails to impress on the dinner table. If you're following a weekly meal plan, this dish is part of, make sure to reserve half of the delicious chicken sauce for another dish later in the week. This way, you'll have a variety of flavors to enjoy throughout the week, and you'll save time and effort in the kitchen. Use any dried pasta as you wish. I prefer spaghettini for this one!

  • 1 x red pepper
  • 1 handful plum tomato
  • 2 tsp sriracha
