This is called ‘help yourself pasta’ as my son used to love this when he was little and he used to help himself rather than me dish it up for him.

Serves 6

What you need

  • oil
  • 500g Chicken Breast
  • tagliatelle pasta
  • 1 can of Batchelors Condensed Chicken Soup
  • 1 can of sweetcorn
  • 1 pack of ham approx 4 slices,sliced or diced
  • milk (measured half way up the empty soup can)
  • salt and black pepper

How to make it

  1. Heat some oil in a frying pan and sauté the chicken until cooked through.
  2. Meanwhile cook the pasta according to packet instructions with a little salt.
  3. When the pasta is cooked drain then return to pan.
  4. When chicken is cooked through, add the sweetcorn, ham, Batchelors Condensed Chicken Soup and the milk. Heat gently.
  5. Pour the sauce over the pasta and toss so that all the ingredients are combined.
  6. Season to taste and enjoy.

Hints and tips

  • This can serve 4-6 people and is lovely served with garlic bread. Very filling and moreish.
  • This is a great dish to use up leftover chicken too.

  • I'm a vegetarian and i swapped chicken for 250g mixed mushrooms and 250g diced courgettes. Yummy! xx

  • This looks really nice. I'm a vegetarian and always look for recipes that i can change up, here i could switch out the chicken for a non meat option. So this recipe is very easy to develop to your own taste. <a href="http://www.theheadcaterer.co.uk">Caterers in Manchester</a>
