Sensational Chicken Pasta
with grated Italian-style cheese
It’s Italy on a plate! A buttery, garlicky sauce, rounded with the crispness of white wine and zestiness of lemon juice, coats al dente spaghetti and special spiced-flour chicken strips, pan-fried until golden. Finished with Italian-style grated hard cheese, this chicken recipe doesn’t skimp on flavour, Chef.
