FRAGRANT BURNT BUTTER
Weigh out 15g of butter. Place a deep, nonstick pan (that has a lid) over a medium heat. When hot, toast the chopped pecans for 3-5 minutes until browned, shifting occasionally. Add the butter and three-quarters of the chopped sage and fry for 1-2 minutes, stirring continuously and keeping a close eye on it. On completion, the butter should be golden brown and have a rich, nutty aroma. Remove from the heat, pour into a bowl, and cover with a plate. Set aside for serving.
BOIL THE PASTA
Boil the kettle. Place a pot for the pasta over a high heat. Fill with boiling water and add a pinch of salt and a drizzle of oil. Once boiling rapidly, cook the pasta for 2-3 minutes until al dente. Taste to test and drain on completion, reserving 1-2 tbsp of pasta water in a bowl. Toss through some oil to prevent sticking and set aside.
GRILL THE CHICKEN
Pat the chicken breast dry with some paper towel. Return the pan to a medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the chicken skin-side down for 5-7 minutes until crispy. Flip the breast, pop on the lid, and fry for a further 5-7 minutes until cooked through. In the final minute, baste the chicken with a knob of butter. Remove from the pan on completion, cover to keep warm, and set aside to rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Lightly season the slices.
OH-SO-CREAMY SAUCE
Wipe down the pan if necessary and return to a low-medium heat with another drizzle of oil. When hot, sauté the grated garlic for 30-60 seconds until fragrant. Add the cream, reserved pasta water, rinsed baby spinach, and cooked, drained pasta. Toss together for 1-2 minutes until the spinach has wilted. Remove from the heat on completion.
TAGLIATELLE TIME!
Spoon a generous helping of saucy pasta into a bowl. Top with the chicken slices and pour over the sage and pecan burnt butter. Dollop with the creamy goat's cheese and garnish with the remaining fresh, chopped sage. Dig in!
