Chicken, Mushroom and Zucchini Bake
Ingredients:
Method:
  1. Preheat oven to 200°C / 180°C fan-forced
  2. Bring a large pan of salted water to the boil and cook pasta according to packet instructions. Drain and reserve one cup of cooking water
  3. Meanwhile, heat 1 tbsp. of oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook for 3 minutes or until browned. Remove and set aside
  4. Add remaining oil to frying pan and add onion and cook for 2 minutes or until softened. Add mushrooms and cook, stirring frequently for 3-4 minutes
  5. Add zucchini, thyme and garlic; cook for a further 2 minutes
  6. Stir in flour and cook for 1 minute. Pour in cooking cream, mustard and return the cooked chicken. Mix well and season with salt and pepper. Simmer for 3 minutes
  7. Stir through half the Perfect Bakes cheese, ½ cup of the reserved cooking water and cooked drained pasta. Transfer to a large 10 cup (2.5 litre) ovenproof baking dish and top with remaining cheese. Bake 15 minutes or until cheese is melted and golden brown
Tips & Hints:
  • If sauce is too thick, add some more of the reserved cooking water to the combined pasta and sauce mixture before spooning into baking dish.

I've made this recipe so many times. Can't recommend it enough. I add peas to it sometimes as well. Thanks
