Ingredients

  • 50 g butter, plus 25 g extra for the pasta
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 1 green capsicum, seeds removed and diced
  • 5 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
  • 2 tbsp tomato paste
  • 1 kg chicken thigh fillets, cut into 10-cm pieces
  • 1 tbsp plain flour
  • 2 tbsp paprika
  • 500 ml (2 cups) chicken stock
  • 150 ml sour cream
  • 500 g orecchiette, or other short pasta
  • 1 tbsp finely shredded parsley leaves

Instructions

  1. Heat a large, heavy–based baking dish over medium heat. Add the butter, onion and capsicum and cook for 5 minutes or until the onion is softened. Add the garlic and cook for another 2 minutes or until fragrant. Add the tomato paste and stir to combine.
  2. Toss the chicken in the flour and add to the pan with the paprika and chicken stock. Stir to combine well, then bring to a simmer. Cover, reduce the heat to low and simmer for 15 minutes. Stir in the sour cream.
  3. While the chicken is simmering, cook the pasta until al dente according to the packet directions. Drain, return to the pan and toss through the extra butter.
  4. Serve the chicken alongside the pasta, scattered with parsley.
