Ingredients

Printable 🖨 shopping 🛒 list & 👩‍🍳 method for this recipe

• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• Freshly ground black pepper
• 1 medium leek
• 350 g box of field mushrooms
• 5cm (2") chorizo sausage
• 1 medium chicken breast
• 3 cloves of garlic, peeled and sliced (or to taste)
• 2 tablespoon cream sherry
• 150 ml single cream
• Zest and juice of half a lemon
• 300 g fresh pasta of choice

Mise en place

• Slice the chorizo thinly
• Cut the chicken into thin bite-sized pieces - nice and thin means they will cook quickly
• Cut each mushroom onto about 3 slices

Method

1. Heat the oil in a wok or a frying pan, add a good grind of pepper and tip in the leeks
2. Gentry sauté the leeks for 3 minutes - don't let them take on any colour
3. Turn the heat up add add the mushrooms and stir-fry them until they start to release a little water
4. Add the chorizo and stir-fry for for 2 minutes
5. Mix in the chicken pieces and the sliced garlic and cook until the chicken is done and not pink when cut.
6. Now is a good time to start the broccoli and the pasta - add the pasta to fast boiling water and boil for about 4 minutes. Dried pasta will take longer. The broccoli should be steamed for about the same time depending upon how well cooked you like it.
7. This should only take 3 or 4 minutes if the chicken is cut thinly enough.
8. Add the sherry the zest and juice from half a lemon and stir well to de-glaze the pan.
9. Remove from the heat and pour in the cream and mix really well to combine.
10. Pour over the cooked pasta.
