Ingredients
- 250 g pasta I used spiral pasta (see my notes for substitutions)
- 300 g broccoli from 1 large head of broccoli, fresh florets
- 2 teaspoons butter
- 300 ml thickened cream heavy cream
- ¾ teaspoon garlic powder
- ¼ teaspoon onion powder
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 300 g chicken shredded (I used rotisserie chicken, cooked
- 50 g Parmesan Cheese finely grated
- 1 teaspoon thyme fresh leaves
- 40 g mozzarella cheese grated
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 180c.
- Cook the pasta in a large pot of salted water according to the package directions (less 1 minute), adding in broccoli for the last 2 minutes (see my notes).
- Drain and return to the pot, then stir through the butter allowing it to melt then set aside.
- While the pasta cooks, in a jug or small bowl whisk together cream, garlic powder, onion powder, mustard and salt.
- Add chicken, parmesan, thyme and cream mixture to pasta and broccoli, stirring well to coat.
- Transfer the pasta mixture into a large baking dish (20 x 30cm/8 x 12"), sprinkle mozzarella cheese over the top and bake for 20 - 25 minutes until brown on top and heated through.
Notes
- *Please note that the nutrition facts and amount of calories per serve are provided as a guide only, as ingredients and cooking methods can vary greatly*
- The best substitute for spiral pasta would be another shaped pasta such as penne, ziti, rigatoni or orecchiette, rather than something long and thin like spaghetti.
- The water won't come back to the boil after you add the broccoli to the pot with the pasta, that's ok.
