Smoky Chicken & Apple Sausages, Lemon & Artichoke Pasta

Serves 2

A bowl full of sunshine.

Smoky HECK! Chicken & Apple sausages, zingy lemon, tender artichokes and glossy pasta come together for a fresh, flavour-packed summer dish. Light, bright and properly tasty.

What you’ll need

• 1 pack HECK! Smoky Chicken & Apple Sausages

• 300g pasta

• 200g artichoke hearts

• 1 onion, diced

• 5 garlic cloves, sliced

• 2 lemons

• 20g parsley, chopped

• 200ml white wine

• 20g Parmesan, plus extra to finish

• Black pepper, to taste

Method

1. Cook the HECK! Smoky Chicken & Apple sausages following the pack instructions until golden and cooked through. Slice into chunky rounds and set aside.

2. Cook the pasta until al dente, reserving around 100ml of pasta water before draining.

3. Meanwhile, add the diced onion to a large frying pan and cook over a medium heat until softened.

4. Add the garlic, lemon zest and artichoke hearts, then pour in the white wine. Bring to the boil and simmer until reduced by half.

5. Stir in the reserved pasta water and simmer for a few minutes until slightly reduced.

6. Add the cooked pasta, sliced sausages, Parmesan, parsley and a squeeze of fresh lemon juice. Toss everything together until the pasta is glossy and coated in the sauce.

7. Finish with extra Parmesan, parsley and black pepper, then serve straight away.

Top Tip

Use the pasta water to bring everything together - it helps create that glossy, silky sauce without needing anything heavy.
