Olive Oil for the Dressing
Fill and boil your kettle.
Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press). Zest and halve the lemon.
Trim the courgette, then use a peeler to peel long ribbons along the length of half the courgette. Quarter the remaining half lengthways and chop widthways into small pieces.
Grate the Cheddar.
Heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on high heat.
Once hot, add the chicken and half the dried rosemary, then season with salt and pepper. Stir-fry until browned all over, 5-6 mins.
Transfer the chicken to a bowl and set aside. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw chicken and its packaging.
Return the (now empty) pan to medium heat with a drizzle of oil.
Once hot, add the chopped courgette. Cook until starting to colour, 4-5 mins, then add the garlic and cook for 1 min.
Add the water for the sauce (see pantry for amount), chicken stock paste, creme fraiche and a knob of butter (if you have any). Stir to combine, then return the chicken to the pan and simmer until cooked through, 7-8 mins. IMPORTANT: The chicken is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.
While the sauce simmers, pour the boiled water from the kettle into a large saucepan with 1/2 tsp salt on high heat.
Add the spaghetti and bring back to the boil. Cook until tender, 8 mins.
Once cooked, drain in a colander (reserving a little of the pasta water) and pop back in the pan. Drizzle with oil and stir through to stop it sticking together.
Meanwhile, pop the lemon zest, remaining rosemary and olive oil for the dressing (see pantry for amount) into a small bowl. Mix together, then season with salt and pepper.
Add the courgette ribbons to the dressing and toss to coat, then set aside.
Once the chicken has cooked and the sauce has thickened, stir in the Cheddar and add the cooked spaghetti to the pan. Toss to coat in the sauce and cook until piping hot. TIP: Use your reserved pasta water to loosen if it's a little thick.
When ready, add a squeeze of lemon juice to the pasta. Taste and season with salt, pepper and more lemon juice if needed.
Share the creamy chicken spaghetti between your bowls and serve with the courgette salad on top for those who'd like it.
Enjoy!
