Ingredients
  

  • 8 oz dry farfalle
  • 1 tbsp fine salt for pasta water
  • 1 lb boneless skinless chicken thighs cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1/2 tsp fine salt for chicken
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 2 tbsp olive oil divided
  • 6 garlic cloves thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup low-sodium chicken broth
  • 3/4 cup frozen peas
  • 1/2 cup finely grated Parmesan

Method
 

  1. Cook farfalle with tablespoon salt to 1 minute short of package time. Reserve 1 cup pasta water; drain.
  2. Meanwhile, season chicken with its salt and pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in large skillet; cook chicken 7 to 8 minutes until browned and at least 165°F. Plate.
  3. Reduce to medium-low; add remaining oil and garlic. Cook 2 to 3 minutes until pale golden; add broth and peas. Simmer 2 minutes.
  4. Return chicken with pasta and 1/2 cup reserved water. Toss 1 to 2 minutes until pasta tender and peas hot.
  5. Remove from heat; gradually add Parmesan, loosening with pasta water if needed for smooth light coating. Serve immediately.
