A whole some goodness in one dish. Enjoy it warm and sprinkle extra cheese for better taste when done with making the recipe.

To begin making Penne Rigate With Minced Chicken Sauce & Cheese Recipe,firstly cook the pasta.
In a large pot, add water and bring it to a boil. Once the water has boiled, add a teaspoon of salt.
Add the pasta to the boiling water and let it cook in the boiling water until it is al dente. This process should take a good 12-15 minutes.
Once the pasta has cooked, drain the water and run the cooked pasta under running water to stop the cooking process.
Drizzle some oil on top of pasta and make sure to coat all of the pasta with the oil so that the pasta doesn't stick to each other.
In a wok or frying pan, heat olive oil on a medium heat.
Once the oil is hot enough, add garlic paste and fry until the raw smell disappears.
Now add chopped onions, cook until soft and tender.
Once the onions are done, add minced chicken, red chili powder and tomato paste. Add salt and mix it well. Cook covered for 10 minutes or more stirring occasionally, until the meat is cooked and there is a nice arom emerging.
Now add the drained pasta, italian seasoning and dried basil leaves.
