Instructions

  1. Mist a large pan with cooking spray and set over a medium heat. Add the onions and cook for 6-8 minutes until soft. Add the chicken and cook for a further 3-4 minutes, or until just browned.
  2. Add the garlic and paprika to the pan and cook for another minute. Add the passata and season well, then reduce the and gently simmer for 6-8 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through, then stir in the parsley.

Use wholewheat tagliatelle in place of white, if you like.
