Ingredients:

  • 50 grams spaghetti
  • 100 grams chicken breast fillet, diced
  • 50 grams broccoli florets
  • 100 milliliters full cream milk
  • 20 grams cheddar cheese
  • 1 clove garlic, finely chopped
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 800 milliliters water
  • 1 tablespoon cooking oil

Instructions:

  1. Cook the Spaghetti:

    • In a large pot, bring 600 milliliters of water to a boil. Add 1 tablespoon of cooking oil to prevent sticking. Once the water is boiling, add the spaghetti and cook until al dente. Drain the spaghetti and set aside.
  2. Prepare the Broccoli:

    • In a separate pot, bring 200 milliliters of water to a boil. Add the broccoli florets and a pinch of salt. Cook for about 1 minute, or until the broccoli is tender but still vibrant. Drain the broccoli and set aside.
  3. Sauté the Aromatics:

    • Heat 2 tablespoons of cooking oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and finely chopped garlic. Sauté until fragrant and the onion is translucent.
  4. Cook the Chicken:

    • Add the diced chicken to the skillet. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is fully cooked and lightly browned.
  5. Make the Creamy Sauce:

    • Pour in the full cream milk and add the cheddar cheese to the skillet. Stir until the cheese is melted and the sauce starts to thicken.
  6. Combine and Serve:

    • Add the cooked broccoli and spaghetti to the skillet. Toss everything together until well coated with the creamy sauce. Adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.
  7. Finish and Enjoy:

    • Stir in the lemon juice to add a touch of freshness. Serve the creamy spaghetti immediately, garnished with extra cheese if desired.

This delicious, creamy spaghetti dish combines tender chicken, crisp broccoli, and a rich, cheesy sauce, making it a comforting meal perfect for any occasion. Enjoy!
