MADE WITH


  1. Mix together the ingredients for the mayonade, add in the chicken pieces, ensure they are coated and then set aside.

  2. While chicken is in the fridge, bring your water to a boil. Add pasta and cook per packaging instructions or until al dente. Reserve ½ cup of pasta water, then drain.

  3. Heat a large pan on medium heat. Add a light drizzle of olive oil. Add the marinated chicken pieces and onions. Cook until browned and cooked through, about 3 minutes on each side. Lower the heat and add mustard powder, chicken stock, lemon juice, heavy cream and Hellmann’s® Garlic Aioli. Using a wooden spoon, scrape any brown bits from the bottom of the pan. Bring to a simmer and lower the heat.

  4. Add the cheese and peas. Mix well before adding the cooked pasta, adding pasta water if needed.

  5. On the stove, heat a pan with butter. Once melted, add panko breadcrumbs. Stir frequently, letting the breadcrumbs get brown and toast. Remove from heat and set aside.

  6. Serve immediately with fresh parsley, toasted panko breadcrumbs and cracked black pepper.
