This fresh chicken pasta dish pumps up the veg with courgette noodles and is ready in just 20 minutes.
1 Preheat oven to 200°C. Line a baking tray with baking paper. Scatter the tomatoes over tray. Spray with oil and season with cracked black pepper. Bake for 15 minutes, or until just blistered.
2 Mix the pesto and lemon juice. Toss a third of the pesto mixture through the chicken to marinate, and set remaining pesto aside.
3 Cook pasta according to the packet instructions. Drain well.
4 Meanwhile, spray a large non-stick frying pan with olive oil and set over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken, stirring, for 5 minutes, or until cooked through. Transfer to a plate and keep warm. Add the courgette noodles to the pan and stir-fry for 1–2 minutes, or until just tender.
5 Toss chicken, tomatoes and remaining lemon pesto through spaghetti and courgette noodles. Divide among 4 serving plates, and sprinkle with pine nuts and shaved parmesan, to serve.
Use a spiraliser or V-slicer to cut courgette, or slice with a peeler. You can also buy courgette ‘noodles’ at your supermarket.
