For the last few days I have had some spare chorizo staring me in the face every time I opened the fridge and so mentally, I’ve gone from one meal idea to another. And because I had a tub of quark in need of using up, tonight I settled on a Chicken & Chorizo Pasta Bake.
So here is my version. For something low fat, I think it is close enough for version when substituting a calorific single cream version with a fat free soft cheese.
It serves 4 very generous portions.
Recipe
Ingredients:
– 250g penne pasta (I used wholewheat)
– Fry light
– 2 large skinless chicken breast fillets, cut in to bit size pieces (mine were 380g)
– 1 red pepper, diced
– 1 tin of drained sweetcorn
– 1 diced onion
– 1 small 2″ long chorizo sausage, diced (I used Morisson’s Cooking Sausage) = 2.5 syns per person
– 500g passata
– 250g quark (fat free cheese)
– 1/2 tsp dried chilli flakes
– 80g grated low fat cheddar (half of your daily dairy allowance per person)
– 1 chicken stock cube (I used a stockpot)
– 2 tbsp mixed herbs
– seasoning
– Fry light
