Ingredients
- 10 ounces (280g) uncooked pasta
- 10 ounces (560g) garlic and herb Boursin cheese spreads
- 10 ounces (280g) grape tomatoes
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 ½ cups (435g) cooked cubed chicken
- ¾ cup (180ml) reserved pasta water (you will use some, but not all)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F / 190 degrees C / gas mark 5.
- Add the tomatoes into a baking dish and top with the two rounds of Boursin cheese. Drizzle on the olive oil.
- Bake in the oven for 25-30 minutes or until the tomatoes are tender and burst.
- While baking, bring a pot of salted water to the boil and cook your pasta according to the package instructions. When done, set aside ¾ cup of the starchy pasta water and then drain the pasta.
- About 5 minutes before the tomatoes and cheese are done roasting, add in the meat pieces to warm through.
- When tomato cheese mix is done baking, remove from the oven and mix in the cooked pasta and ½ cup of the reserved pasta water. Feel free to add more water until you get your desired sauce consistency. Serve warm.
