Instructions

Step 1

Cook the spaghetti following the instructions on the packet. This usually takes around 10 minutes to cook.

Step 2

While the pasta is cooking, heat a little oil in large frying pan on medium heat and add the chicken. Once it’s nicely golden and nearly cooked through, add the mushrooms*.

Step 3

Once the mushrooms have browned, turn the heat down a little and add the butter, garlic, and thyme. Season with salt and pepper.

Step 4

Add the cream cheese and Big Milk, stirring until the cheese has melted and the sauce has thickened a bit.

Step 5

Add half the grated cheese along with the spinach, and stir carefully until the spinach has wilted.

Step 6

Add the cooked spaghetti to the pan and toss it all together so the pasta gets coated in the delicious sauce. If it’s a bit too thick, add a little pasta water saved from the spaghetti.

Step 7

Serve into bowls and sprinkle over with the rest of the cheese, then tuck into your alfredo feast!

Enjoy!
