Instructions

Cook penne
1
  • Add penne to the boiling water. Cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, until tender, 10-12 min.
  • Reserve 1/2 cup (1 cup) pasta water, then drain and return penne to the same pot, off heat.
Cook carrots
2
  • Meanwhile, heat a large pan over medium-high heat.
  • Peel and quarter carrot lengthwise, then cut into 1/4-inch quarter-moons.
  • When the pan is hot, add carrots, 1/4 cup (1/2 cup) water, then 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) butter. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until water evaporates and carrots are tender, 5-6 min. (TIP: If carrots are tender before water evaporates, remove lid to finish cooking.)
  • Transfer to a plate.


Sauté chicken
3
  • Meanwhile, roughly chop spinach.
  • Pat chicken dry with paper towels, then cut into 1-inch pieces. Season with salt and pepper.
  • When carrots are done, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter, then chicken to the pan. (NOTE: Cook chicken in 2 batches for 4 ppl, using 1 tbsp butter per batch.)
  • Cook, flipping halfway through, until chicken is golden-brown, 3-4 min.
Make sauce
4
  • Add carrots, penne, curry paste, Tikka sauce, and 1/2 cup (1 cup) reserved pasta water to the pan with chicken. Stir to combine, then bring to a simmer.
  • When simmering, reduce heat to medium.
  • Cook, stirring occasionally, until chicken is cooked through and sauce slightly thickens, 2-4 min.** (TIP: If sauce reduces too fast, add remaining pasta water 1 tbsp at a time until you reach desired consistency.)
Finish penne
5
  • Add spinach, 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter and 1/4 cup (1/2 cup) milk to the pan.
  • Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Stir until butter melts and spinach wilts, 1 min.
  • Remove the pan from heat.



Finish and serve
6
