This easy to prepare recipe is a suggestion for using up leftovers from your fridge and garden which may be available in the Autumn. Where included, suggested quantities are for two people.
​
Ingredients
Cooked bitesize pieces of chicken (two portions)
A small amount of cooked chopped bacon or ham (streaky bacon is ideal)
One large sliced onion
6 -12 cherry tomatoes or 2 larger sliced tomatoes
1 sliced red pepper
2 portions of pasta of your choice (We suggest fresh long spaghetti)
A little olive oil and garlic
​
Method
Fry the onion and red pepper on a low heat in a small quantity of olive oil stirring occasionally until soft. Add the tomatoes and continue stirring for a further five minutes. Leave to simmer with a lid on the frying pan.
Cook the pasta to your own preference, and drain. Add pasta to the frying pan with the chicken and bacon. Add garlic to taste, and a little more olive oil if preferred. Stir well and leave to simmer for a further 10 minutes stirring occasionally. Turn off the heat and leave pan with lid on to stay warm until you wish to serve.
