Kick your usual spaghetti dinners to 11 with this easy-to-make spicy chicken vegetable spaghetti recipe. Adding some sauces and veggies can help you make your noodles worth slurping up.

Ingredients

Scale

What I really like about this recipe is that it isn’t anything too complicated. I usually have most of this stuff lying around in my kitchen, and you might have it too:

  • 3 tablespoons & 1 tablespoon of Cooking Oil (separated)
  • 2 tablespoons of Soya Sauce
  • 2 tablespoons of Vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons of Chilli Sauce
  • 2 tablespoons of Garlic Paste
  • 2 tablespoons of Chicken Tikka Masala
  • 1 cup of Ketchup
  • 1 teaspoon of Salt
  • 5 cups of Water
  • 2 Sliced Carrots
  • Handful of Green Peas
  • 1 Sliced Green Bell Peppers
  • 250 Grams of Boneless Chicken
  • 1 Spaghetti Packet
  • 2 tablespoons of Corn Flour

Optional Ingredients and Substitutes:

There’s not a lot to change in this recipe, as it’s very straightforward. However, one thing I’d like to give a substitute for is chicken tikka masala, because I know that might not be easy to find depending on where you live.

So, if you live somewhere that chicken tikka masala hard to find, you can substitute chicken tikka masala with a mixture of cumin, coriander, and cardamom powders

Instructions

Gather all your ingredients and have them ready with you. Once you’re all set to cook, this is how you’ll want to do it:

  1. Cut The Chicken: Cut the boneless chicken into tiny, bite-sized cubes. If you’re using all 250 grams of the chicken, do it on a cutting board so you don’t damage any surfaces or your knives.cut chicken spaghetti
  2. Top The Chicken With Flavors and Mix: Put the chicken you cut into a deep plate and top it with two tablespoons of vinegar, chilli sauce and soya sauce each. Top this liquid mixture with two tablespoons each of chicken tikka masala (or the alternative I mentioned earlier), and corn flour. After that, mix it all together so it sets in. I always prefer to use my hands for this part, as it’s more effective.mix chicken spaghetti
  3. Leave The Chicken for 2 Hours: The heading is self-explanatory for this one. Just let the chicken rest for 2 hours before continuing with the recipe.leave chicken spaghetti
  4. Boil Water and Cut Vegetables: What you’ll want to do next is put some water on boil. But, don’t just stand there all lazy! Do what I do and cut the vegetables while that happens. Slice up the carrots and green bell peppers from earlier into tiny pieces and put them aside. By the time you’re done with that, the water should be done boiling.cut vegetables spaghetti
  5. Add Oil, Salt and Spaghetti to Boiling Water: Once it’s bubbling, add a tablespoon of cooking oil to the water, followed by a teaspoon of salt. Let it heat up for a bit again before adding your packet of spaghetti.add spaghetti
  6. Mix and Cook: It’ll take a couple of minutes for it to get soft and wet, so do whatever until then. Just make sure to stir it a bit so it softens well and doesn’t stick. Keep occasionally stirring for the next 8-10 minutes while leaving the spaghetti to boil.let spaghetti boil
  7. Drain the Water: The noodles will be done after 8-10 minutes have passed. You can place a colander on the kitchen sink and slowly start draining the water out. Once all the noodles are inside the colander, do what I do and let cold water run over them for a little bit so they don’t start sticking.soak spaghetti
  8. Add Chicken To A Pot and Cook: Put a pot on the stove and heat it up before pouring three tablespoons of cooking oil across it. Dump all the chicken you readied earlier inside, and start mixing. Spread it across the pot and let it cook for 7-8 minutes while occasionally moving the chicken.cook chicken for spaghetti
  9. Add Vegetables and Garlic Paste: After that time has passed, add two tablespoons of garlic paste before you start mixing again for a minute. Now start dumping in the vegetables.start adding ingredients spaghetti
  10. Mix, Cover, and Cook: Add 1.5 cups of water to the pot and start mixing everything around. After it’s all together, cover the pot and let it cook for 4-5 minutes.cover and cook
  11. Add Ingredients and Cook: Add the rest of the chicken tikka masala left in the packet, along with a cup of tomato ketchup. Start mixing again. Just let everything cook for 3-4 minutes again and then you can add the spaghetti!add final ingredients
  12. Cook on Low Flame: Turn the flame on your stove down a little and cover the pot. Let the spaghetti cook for just another 2-3 minutes, and it’ll be ready to serve! You can finally start munching down on the meal you made.complete spaghetti

Notes

  • You can consider additional ingredients too, such as various vegetables. I like to add tiny bits of lettuce or broccoli in mine sometimes. Corn and cabbage can also be good additions.
  • You can also mess around with different sauces if you prefer their taste. But, don’t make things too much more complicated than they need to be. Try to follow the recipe mostly as it is and I promise you that you won’t be disappointed!
