Creamy Garlic Chicken Pasta
with paprika spiced mushrooms
As the national spice of Hungary, paprika adds more than an intense orange-red colour to a dish. With its mild, peppery, earthy flavour profiles, this special spice will elevate every ingredient in your chicken pasta dish today. From the garlic-infused mushrooms, the golden strands of chicken spiced with NOMU Italian Rub and even the creamy Emmental cheesy, you will quickly understand why Hungary reveres this dried pepper spice.

PERFECT PASTA
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil for the pasta. Cook the pasta until al dente, 10-12 minutes. Drain, reserving the pasta water, and toss through a drizzle of olive oil.
NOMU-SPICED Chicken
Place a pan over medium heat with a drizzle of oil. Pat the Chicken dry with paper towel and cut into strips. When hot, fry the chicken until golden and cooked through, 1-2 minutes per side. In the final 30 seconds, baste with a knob of butter and the NOMU rub. Remove from the pan, season, and set aside.
MMMUSHROOMS
Return the pan to medium heat with a drizzle of oil and a knob of butter. Fry the mushrooms until golden, 5-6 minutes (shifting occasionally). Add the garlic and paprika until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Remove from the heat and add the crème fraîche, cheese, and a splash of pasta water. Mix in the pasta and seasoning.
DREAMY DINNER
Bowl up the creamy pasta, top with the golden Chicken, and garnish with the parsley. Enjoy!
