1 Cook spaghetti, according to packet instructions, in a large saucepan of boiling water until al dente. Add peas and broccoli for last 2 minutes of cooking time. Drain well and return to pan.
2 Meanwhile, spray a large non-stick frying pan with olive oil and set over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook, turning, for 2-3 minutes, or until golden. Remove from pan and set aside.
3 Spray pan with olive oil again and set over medium heat. Gently cook leek for 5 minutes, or until soft. Add garlic and lemon zest and cook for 1 minute. Stir in wine, chicken stock and cooking cream and simmer for 2-3 minutes, or until liquid reduces by half. Return reserved chicken to pan with lemon juice and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until heated through (see tip).
