ARRABBIATA RECIPES

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large non-stick pan, add the onions, cover and cook for 5 mins. Remove the lid and cook for 5 mins more, stirring frequently until softened. Add the garlic, chilli flakes and paprika, stir briefly, then tip in the tomatoes and a can of water. Stir in the bouillon and aubergine, then bring to a simmer, cover and cook for 20 mins.
• Cook the penne in a pan of boiling water for 12 mins until al dente. Drain, reserving 60ml of the cooking water. Add the cooked penne to the sauce, and toss well with the basil and a little of the reserved water, if needed. Spoon into two shallow bowls, and serve topped with the cheese and some extra basil, if you like.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Heat the oil in a non-stick frying pan over a high heat. Season the chicken and fry, skin-side down, for 5 mins until golden brown. Remove and set aside.
• Tip the onion and pepper into the pan and fry for 10 mins until softened. Add the chilli and garlic, and fry for another minute. Pour in the wine, then simmer for a few mins until the liquid is reduced by half. Tip in the tomatoes, oregano, stock, spinach and sugar. Bring to a simmer and cook for 10 mins. Season.
• Pour the sauce into a medium roasting tin. Nestle in the chicken and bake for 35-40 mins until cooked through. Meanwhile, cook the pasta following pack instructions. Scatter the extra oregano over the chicken and serve with the pasta.
