Pasta and chicken sit in a cheese-and-pepper sauce in this calorie-controlled frozen meal. It leans on a simple cacio e pepe idea, with pepper for warmth and cheese for a creamy, savoury base. The chicken pieces are mixed through rather than served separately, and the pasta is the usual quick-heat format you’d expect from a Lean Cuisine meal. Compared with richer frozen pasta bowls in the Lean Cuisine range, it stays fairly restrained on sauce and portion size. Heat it in the microwave, and the sauce loosens around the pasta as it warms through.
