boursin fig and balsamic chicken cavatappi

How To Make boursin fig and balsamic chicken cavatappi

• Step 1
  Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the cavatappi according to package directions. Before draining, reserve 1/2 cup of the pasta water.
• Step 2
  While the pasta cooks, heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Season the chicken with salt and black pepper, then cook for about 4–5 minutes per side until golden and fully cooked. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
• Step 3
  In the same skillet, add the garlic and cook for about 1 minute until fragrant. Stir in the Boursin Fig and Balsamic cheese along with the reserved pasta water, whisking until smooth and creamy. Add the parmesan cheese and spinach, stirring until the spinach wilts.
• Step 4
  Add the cooked cavatappi and chicken back into the skillet and toss until fully coated in the sauce. If needed, add a splash of extra pasta water to loosen the sauce.
• Step 5
  Serve warm with extra Parmesan cheese, cracked black pepper, and a drizzle of balsamic glaze on top.
