Cooking Steps

Boil penne
1
  • Before starting, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil (use same for 4 servings). Wash and dry all produce.
  • To the boiling water, add penne. Cook for 12-14 min,stirring occasionally, until tender but still firm to the bite.
  • Reserve 1/2 cup (1 cup) pasta water.
  • Strain penne, then return to the pot, off heat.
Prep
2
  • Meanwhile, core, then cut pepper into 1/4-inch slices.
  • Roughly chop cilantro.
  • Pat chicken dry with paper towels, then cut into 1-inch pieces.
  • In a medium bowl, toss together chicken, curry powder, and 1/2 tbsp (1 tbps) oil. Season with salt and pepper. 
Cook chicken and peppers
3
  • Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high.
  • While pan heats, pat chicken dry with paper towels. Season with salt and pepper.
  • When the pan is hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then chicken, peas and peppers. Cook for 4-6 min, stirring occasionally, until chicken is golden. Don't crowd the pan; work in batches if needed. (NOTE: It's okay if chicken doesn't cook all the way through in this step.)
Cook sauce
4
  • To the same pan, add jerk sauce, garlic puree and cream. Cook for 1-2 min, stirring occasionally, until sauce thickens slightly.
  • To the pot with penne, add sauce and 1/4 cup (1/2 cup) reserved pasta water. (TIP: For a lighter sauce consistency, add more reserved pasta water, 1-2 tbsp at a time.) Season with salt and pepper. Stir to coat.
Finish and serve
5
  • Divide penne between bowls.
  • Sprinkle with cilantro.
