Italian food is one of the most delicious yet effortless cuisines you can recreate at home. With simple ingredients that can create fantastic dishes, this really is the perfect way to try out new meals even if you’re not the most advanced or confident home cook. If you’re looking for somewhere to start, with the help of Italian restaurant, Bella Cosa, we’ve put together a list of our favourite Italian recipes that you will easily be able to make at home, so give them a whirl and you may find yourself becoming a competent home cook.

Stuffed Chicken with Tomatoes

Serves: 4

Preparation time: 5 mins

Cooking time: 20 mins

Ingredients:

2 tbsp sundried tomatoes, chopped

1 garlic clove, crushed

½ tsp dried mixed herbs

200g soft cheese

4 large skinless chicken breasts

4 ripe tomatoes, sliced

Olive oil, for drizzling

Method:

  1. Preheat the oven to 220ºC/fan 200ºC/gas 7. Beat the sundried tomatoes, garlic and most of the herbs into the soft cheese before adding a pinch of salt and pepper. Cut a slit along the side of the chicken breasts, being careful not to slice right through to the other side.
  2. Opening the slit in each chicken breast, stuff them with the soft cheese mixture, dividing it evenly between each breast. Once stuffed and closed, place the chicken on a greased baking tray, then place tomato slices on top of each chicken breast. Season and scatter the rest of the herbs over the breasts before drizzling with olive oil.
  3. Place in the oven and roast for 20 mins until the chicken is golden around the edges. You can then serve as you like, but we would recommend plating up with buttery new potatoes and your favourite greens.

Spaghetti Carbonara

Serves: 4

Preparation time: 15 – 20 mins

Cooking time: 15 mins

Ingredients:

100g pancetta

50g pacorino cheese

50g parmesan

3 large eggs

350g spaghetti

2 garlic cloves, peeled

50g unsalted butter

Salt and pepper

Methods:

  1. Fill a large saucepan with water and put on the boil.
  2. Remove the rind from the pancetta and finely chop. Grate the pecorino cheese and parmesan, mixing them together.
  3. Beat the eggs in a bowl and season.
  4. Once the the saucepan have water has been brought to the boil, add the spaghetti and turn down to a simmer, cooking for 10 mins.
  5. Use the flat part of your knife blade to squash the garlic cloves, enough to bruise it.
  6. In a large frying pan melt the butter before adding the pancetta and garlic, frying for around 5 minutes until the pancetta is golden and a little crispy. You can now take the garlic out of the pan and throw away.
  7. Turn the heat under the pancetta down to low and when the pasta is cooked, lift it out of the pan with tongs and add to the pancetta, keeping the water to one side.
  8. Mix nearly all of the cheese with the beaten eggs.
  9. Take the pan off the heat before pouring in the eggs and cheese. It’s important that the pan is no longer on the heat in order to avoid the eggs scrambling. Keep the spaghetti moving around the pan to make sure it is completely coated.
  10. Add a little leftover pasta water to the pasta to make it extra saucy and moist, just a tablespoon at a time.
  11. Season with salt and pepper before serving with the remaining cheese.
