Hello Foodies! How are you all? I hope you are doing well.
Today, I am sharing a delicious pasta recipe with you. My children love this recipe, so I thought I would share it with all of you as well. It is full of flavor, easy to prepare, and perfect for the whole family. I also love serving this pasta with homemade garlic raita, which makes it even more delicious.
So, let's start the recipe
Step 1: Boiling the Pasta
First, take a large pot of water and bring it to a boil. Add one teaspoon of salt and a little oil to the water. Once the water starts boiling, add the pasta.I am using three packets of pasta because I am preparing it for my family. You can adjust the quantity according to your needs.
Adding a little oil to the water helps reduce sticking, but make sure to stir the pasta occasionally while it cooks. Once the pasta is cooked, drain the water and rinse it with cold water.
Step 2: Preparing the Tomato and Garlic Paste
For the sauce, take approximately five to six tomatoes and blend them into a smooth paste. Add one whole garlic bulb to the tomatoes and grind everything together.
Now, heat some oil in a pot and add the tomato and garlic paste. Let it cook over medium heat until the tomatoes are well cooked and the mixture starts releasing oil.
Step 3: Preparing the Vegetables
While the tomato paste is cooking, let's prepare the vegetables.For this recipe, I am using one large onion, some green onions, and capsicum. Finely chop the onions and capsicum.
Heat some oil in a pan and fry the onions until they turn slightly pink. We do not want them to become brown, so keep an eye on them. Once they are ready, remove them from the pan and set them aside.Now, add the chopped capsicum to the same oil and fry it well. Once the capsicum is cooked, remove it and keep it aside with the fried onions
.
Step 4: Preparing the Chicken Tomato Sauce
Now, check the tomato and garlic paste. Once it starts boiling properly, add salt and mixed spices according to your taste. Cook it well until the sauce thickens and the oil begins to separate.
I usually keep some cooked chicken ready at home, as I have mentioned in my previous posts. It makes cooking much easier and saves time.Now, add the cooked chicken to the tomato sauce and mix everything well. Let it cook for a few more minutes so the chicken absorbs all the delicious flavors of the sauce.Our chicken tomato sauce is now ready!
Step 5: Mixing the Pasta with Vegetables and Spices
By now, our pasta should also be cooked. Drain the water and rinse the pasta with cold water.Transfer the pasta to a large pot or pan. Add your preferred spices and mix well. Now, chop some Coriander into small pieces and add it to the pasta.
Add the fried onions and capsicum that we prepared earlier. Mix everything gently so the vegetables and spices are evenly distributed throughout the pasta.
Step 6: Adding the Chicken Sauce
Now that our sauce is ready, pour it over the pasta. Mix everything thoroughly so that the chicken, vegetables, spices, and tomato sauce combine nicely.Cover the pot and let the pasta cook on low heat for a few minutes. This will help all the flavors blend together beautifully.Our delicious homemade chicken pasta is now ready to serve
Step 7: Preparing the Special Garlic Raita
I personally love eating this pasta with raita, so today I am also preparing a special garlic raita to serve with it.Take some yogurt in a bowl and whisk it until smooth.
Now, add chopped cucumber, green chilies, and two to three garlic cloves to a blender. Blend everything well into a smooth mixture.Add this mixture to the yogurt, sprinkle in a little salt, and mix everything thoroughly.Your refreshing and flavorful garlic raita is ready
Step 8: Serving Time
Finally, our delicious chicken pasta is ready to be served!
Dish out the pasta and serve it with the homemade garlic raita. The combination of flavorful chicken pasta and refreshing garlic raita tastes absolutely amazing.
