    1 Cook pasta according to packet instructions. Three minutes before end of cooking time, add peas. Drain and set aside.

    3 Add lemon zest and spinach, mix to combine.

    4 Divide among 4 bowls and serve.

    Variations

    • Make it gluten free and FODMAP friendly: Use gluten-free pasta.
    • This dish is also delicious with salmon. Simply replace the chicken with 200g plain hot smoked salmon, flaked into pieces — this will bring the cost per serve up to about $6.00.
