Cooking Steps

1
  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
  • Wash and dry all produce. 
  • To the boiling water, add fusilli. Cook for 12-14 min, until tender but still firm to the bite.
  • Reserve 3/4 cup (1 1/2 cups) pasta water.
  • Strain penne, then return to the pot, off heat.

  • Meanwhile, peel then chop onion in to 1/4 inch pieces. 
  • Trim snap peas.
  • Pat chicken dry with paper towels.
  • Season chicken with salt and pepper.

  • Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high.
  • When hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) garlic spread, then chicken. (NOTE: Cook in batches for 4 servings, using 1 tbsp oil per batch.) Sear for 2-3 mins,then add snap peas** 
  • Cook for another 3-4 mins until chicken is golden and cooked through and snap peas are tender-crisp.
  • Remove the pan from the heat, then transfer chicken and snap peas to a plate and cover to keep warm.
4
  • Heat the same pan and remaining 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) garlic spread over medium.
  • When garlic spread is melted, add onion and Cream Sauce Spice Blend. Cook for 30 sec-1 min, stirring constantly, until onions are tender and Cream Spice Blend is toasted.*

  • Cook for 1-2 min, stirring often, until cream cheese is melted and sauce reduces slightly. Season with salt and pepper.
