Method

Step 1 of 5

Place the pumpkin in a small saucepan with 1 cup of water.

Step 2 of 5

Cook for 15 minutes or until tender. Drain off excess liquid before ‘mushing’ well to form a smooth paste. This should makes 8 serves of pumpkin purée. Stir in purée with cream. Cover and keep warm over a low heat.

Step 3 of 5

Cook penne in a medium saucepan of boiling salted water, following packet instructions. Drain, retaining about 2 tbs of the cooking water and return to pan.

Step 4 of 5

Thinly slice chicken breast fillet and season with salt and pepper. Heat 2 tsp olive oil in a non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat. Add chicken and the garlic clove and cook for 5-6 minutes, turning over halfway until golden and cooked through. Transfer to a plate and keep warm.

Step 5 of 5

Add butter to a pan and stir until melted. Remove leaves from the bunch of sage and add to the butter. Cook until crisp and butter has turned golden. Divide pasta between bowls. Top with chicken and spoon over sage butter. Season and serve with shaved parmesan.
