Cooking Steps

Cook rigatoni and green peas
1
  • Before starting, wash and dry all produce.
  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil (use same for 4 servings). 
  • Peel, then cut onion into 1/4-inch pieces.
  • To the boiling water, add rigatoni. Cook for 7-8 min, stirring occasionally. Add peas. Cook for 5-6 min, stirring occasionally, until pasta is tender but still firm.
  • Reserve 3/4 cup (1 1/4 cups) pasta water.
  • Strain and rinse pasta with warm water. 
  • Set pasta aside in the strainer.
  • Using paper towels, carefully dry the pot.
Start chicken and sauce
2
  • Pat chicken dry with paper towels. Season with half the Italian Herb Spice Blend, salt and pepper.
  • Heat the same large pot over medium. When hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil, then chicken. Cook for 2-3 min, turning occasionally, until golden. Add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter and onions. Cook for 2-3 min, stirring often, until softened. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Add Cream Sauce Spice Blend and remaining Italian Herb Spice Blend. Cook for 30 sec, stirring constantly, until fragrant.
Finish chicken and sauce

  • To the pot, in a slow, steady stream, add reserved pasta water, then add roasted garlic puree and 2 tbsp (4 tbsp) milk, whisking to avoid lumps. Bring to a simmer over high.
  • Once simmering, reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer for 5-6 min, stirring often, until sauce thickens and chicken is cooked through.**
  • Roughly chop spinach.
  • Add cheddar and cream cheese. Cook for 45 sec-1 min, stirring constantly, until cheese is melted and combined. 
Finish and serve
