Ingredients
 

spaghetti

  • 200 g Pasta flour type 00
  • 1 Egg
  • 1 pinch Salt
  • Water

Chicken in paprika cream

  • 300 g Chicken breast
  • 0,5 tsp Pimenton de la vera mild
  • 0,5 tsp Pimenton de la vera hot
  • 1 Shallot, finely diced
  • 2 Garlic cloves, finely grated
  • 3 Red Peppers
  • 200 ml White wine
  • 200 ml Vegetable stock
  • 100 ml Cream
  • Sugar
  • Salt
  • Black pepper from the mill
  • Fresh sage
  • Olive oil

Instructions
 

spaghetti

  • Put the flour in a bowl, add the egg in the middle, a pinch of salt and some water. Then work everything into an elastic dough, wrap it in cling film and let it rest for at least 30 minutes at room temperature.
  • Then roll out thinly with the pasta machine and cut into spaghetti with the spaghetti attachment. Then cook them in sufficiently salted water until al dente.

Chicken in paprika cream

  • Cut the chicken breast into slices (as with the gyros) and place the meat in a bowl. Add the salt and pepper as well as both types of pimento. Add a tablespoon of olive oil and mix everything together well - preferably with your hands - and work in the spices well, cover and leave in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours.
  • Core the peppers and peel the peel well with a peeler. Then cut the peppers into cubes. Heat a little olive oil in a saucepan and fry the shallot and garlic until translucent, then add the peppers and roast for a few minutes.
  • Now deglaze with the white wine and let it reduce almost completely. Then pour in the vegetable stock and simmer the sauce on the lowest setting for about 2 hours. Then puree everything very finely with the hand blender and now add the cream and simmer until the desired consistency is reached.
  • Now season with salt and pepper and a little sugar. At the same time, heat up a pan and sear the chicken briefly and spicy - you don't need to add oil, as the chicken brings enough oil.
  • Now add the chicken to the sauce and let it simmer for about 3 minutes without the sauce boiling. Cut a few sage leaves into strips and fold in.

finish

  • Drain the spaghetti while collecting a small ladle of pasta water. Then add the pasta water to the sauce. Drain the spaghetti well and arrange on pasta plates and pour sauce over them.
  • If you like, you can slice Parmesan on top.
