1. Start by taking the chicken and cut down the middle of the breast to form a butterfly shape. Cover with cling film and use a rolling pin to beat the chicken flat, make sure it’s even.

2. Start to heat your pan up. When it is hot, add your oil.

3. Prepare the bowl of flour

4. Mix all the seasoning in with your breadcrumbs.

5. Whisk the egg in a bowl so it is ready.

6. Dip the chicken in the flour and pat off the excess, dip into the egg mixture and then dip into the breadcrumbs and make sure the chicken is evenly coated.

7. Once this is done put the chicken in the pan and cook until both sides are golden.

8. Boil water in a pan and add in the spaghetti, cook until al dente.

9. Drain, add the garlic paste, tomato passata and pepper. Gently cook on a very low heat just to thicken up the tomato sauce.

10. Serve and enjoy!!!
