Напрямки

Heat a large frypan, with a lid, over medium heat and add the oil, onion, celery, carrot and garlic, and cook, stirring occasionally, until translucent.

Add the chicken and cook, stirring for 3-4 minutes, until browned, then add the thyme leaves, sun-dried tomatoes, tomato paste, chilli flakes, risoni, stock and cream and season with pepper.

Mix to combine and pop the lid on and allow to cook over medium-low heat for 15-20 minutes until most of the liquid has been absorbed and it has thickened.

Add the spinach and mix to wilt. Add the parmesan cheese and stir through.

Serve with fresh basil leaves.
