Ingredients

2 x 224g packs Asda Mini Chicken Fillets

2 tbsp Asda Coarse Grain Mustard

1 tbsp balsamic vinegar

1 tbsp clear honey

1 tbsp dark soy sauce

1 tbsp olive oil

275g penne (or rigatoni)

2 x 160g packs Asda Trimmed Sugar Snap Peas

250g pack Asda Asparagus, trimmed and cut into short lengths

10 sun-dried tomatoes in oil, drained and roughly chopped

Basil leaves, to garnish

Method

1
Cut each chicken fillet into two or three pieces. Whisk together the mustard, vinegar, honey, soy sauce and olive oil in a large bowl. Season well, add the chicken and toss so that all the pieces are coated. Cover and leave for 30 minutes.
2
Cook the pasta in a large pan of lightly salted boiling water for 12 minutes, adding the sugar snap peas and asparagus for the last 30 minutes. Drain.
3
While the pasta is cooking, tip the chicken and all the marinade into a wok or large frying pan and fry, stirring occasionally, for 5-6 minutes or until cooked through. Add the cooked pasta and vegetables, along with the sun-dried tomatoes, and toss together. Serve garnished with basil leaves.
