One Pot Pasta with Chicken and Sweet Corn

One Pot, because it is just that what you need to cook this delicious pasta.  The Serving plate is optional, simply chop your ingredients and add them to the drained pasta and toss!!  I also gave my husband the idea to eat from the pot, so that no one worries about cleaning  the dishes afterwards..... it was just too daring!

500g Pasta Shells

1 whole chicken breast cut into small cubes

1 onion finely chopped

juice of half a lemon

1 fresh sweet corn or 1 small can

3 beef tomatoes peeled seeded and chopped

1 small bunch  basil leaves

50g toasted pine nuts

Salt & Pepper

Chilli flakes optional

Bring a large pan of water to a boil add 1 tsp Salt then add sweet corn and pasta shells.  In a serving add chopped onions and squeeze over the juice of half a lemon. 

Before the last 2 minutes of cooking add the chicken cubes to pasta and stir.  Bring back to boil, after just one minute turn off heat and drain immediately.  Transfer pasta to serving dish with lemon and onions, then add chopped tomatoes and toss well.  Tear the basil leaves all over and sprinkle with toasted pine nuts.  Shake over some chilli flakes for an additional kick!
