What you'll need
Season the chicken and prawns: Season the Cedar Food Group chicken breast and prawns with salt, white pepper and cracked black pepper.
Cook the chicken: Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a large pan. Add the chicken and cook until golden and cooked through. Remove from the pan and place in a bowl.
Cook the prawns: Using the same pan, cook the prawns until cooked through and lightly golden. Remove and add them to the bowl with the chicken.
Build the sauce: Add the butter to the same pan, followed by the garlic and mushrooms. Cook until the mushrooms have developed a beautiful golden colour and softened.
Add the chicken and prawns: Return the cooked chicken and prawns to the pan and toss everything together.
Add the vinegar: Pour in the apple cider vinegar and allow it to cook for a minute or two until it has evaporated.
Make it creamy: Pour in the cooking cream, followed by the passata. Season with the remaining salt, white pepper and cracked black pepper.
Simmer: Lower the heat, cover the pan and allow the sauce to gently simmer for a few minutes while you cook your pasta.
Cook the pasta: Cook the rigatoni according to the packet instructions. Before draining, reserve some of the pasta cooking water.
Bring it together: Add the cooked pasta to the sauce and toss well. Add a little reserved pasta water if needed to loosen the sauce and help everything come together.
Finish: Add the Parmigiano and plenty of cracked black pepper. Toss once more and serve with extra Parmigiano on top.
