Chicken and Sweetcorn Treat
This very simple recipe is suitable for everyone eho likes pasta and likes chicken and sweetcorn. These are the main ingredients and they can be bought fairly cheaply.
The whole recipe takes literraly minutes to prepare and costs under £5 depending on how many people you are making this meal for.
To make meal for two people you will need:
1 Tin of sweetcorn (costing around 60p)
2 chicken breasts or diced chicken if your lazy (this will cost around £2.59pence)
Some pasta shapes i find the best being the shells as the sauce will then get suck in them giving it a juicer taste. A whole bag will cost about 60p and you will only need about half.
1 tin of Campbells condenseed Chicken soup (costing around 60p)
Optional extras which you may just have around your house are of course salt and pepper for seasoning and i will sometimes chop a small clove of garlic just to give it a little more flavour.
Directions to make
Chop the chicken into small cube sized pieces (unles you purchased the diced chicken then this of course has already been done for you)
Fry these chicken pieces lightly until they have turned white in colour and have cooked through to the middle - this is why i find it best to chop the pieces of chicken to smaller chunks.
Stir in half the can of campbells condensed chicken soup (this is for 2 people add the whole can for more). As this soup is condensed you will need to add either some single cream or milk to make this soup into a more saucier texture.
Once this soap has been diluted and stirred into the chicken pieces you can then add the sweetcorn. This can be a lot or not a lot depending on your taste really. I like quite a lot of sweetcorn in my meal and becuase of this i will add nearly a whole tin.
While this is all simmering nicely together you are then able to cook the pasta to the directions which are on the packet. i tend to boil water in the kettle first so it takes less time for the water to come to boil from cool.
Once the pasta is ready and your chicken and sweetcorn sauce is ready to pour over.
This whole process takes literraly 10 minutes to do and the result is wonderful. I do like a little bit of parmesean cheese and this sprinkled over the chicken and sweetcorn pasta tastes great.
Summary: a great quick meal
