This tasty cheesy favourite gets a nutritious makeover with the addition of peas and broccoli, and a 'makeunder' by cutting back on the fat.
Ingredients (serves 4):
- 1 1/2 cups dried macaroni pasta
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 medium brown onion, chopped
- 2 garlic cloves, crushed
- 500g chicken thigh fillets, trimmed, sliced

- 125g grape tomatoes, halved
- 1/2 cup fresh breadcrumbs
- 1/2 cup reduced-fat grated tasty cheese
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 180°C/160°C fan-forced. Cook macaroni in a large saucepan of boiling water, following packet directions, until tender. Drain.
- Meanwhile, heat oil in a large deep frying pan over medium-high heat. Add onion and garlic. Cook, stirring, for 3 minutes or until onion has softened. Add chicken. Cook, stirring, for 5 to 7 minutes or until browned. Add flour and mustard. Cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Reduce heat to medium-low.
