Instructions

  1. Mix the diced chicken with the olive oil, onion powder, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt and pepper.
  2. Sear the chicken in a pan over medium-high heat with olive oil for 3-4 minutes per side until golden and cooked through.
  3. Rest the chicken for 5 minutes, then dice it and put it in a clean bowl with the lemon juice and honey. Mix and set aside.
  4. Boil the pasta in salted water for 1 minute less than the packet says, then drain.
  5. In the same pan over medium-high heat, add a splash of olive oil and sauté the onion and bell pepper for 3-4 minutes.
  6. Add the butter and garlic and cook for 1 minute.
  7. Add the white wine or stock and cook for 1 minute to deglaze the pan.
  8. Add the cream, chipotle in adobo, sweet paprika, salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer, reduce to low and cook for 6-7 minutes until reduced and thickened.
  9. Add the cooked chicken, frozen peas and Parmesan to taste, and check the seasoning.
  10. Add the pasta and toss for 1 minute until combined. Remove from the heat.
  11. Serve in bowls, topped with parsley, Parmesan and cracked black pepper.
