Ingredients

  • 40g chicken breast
  • 2 tbsp peas, fresh or frozen
  • 2 tbsp tiny pasta (wheat)
  • 1 tsp olive oil (optional)
  • 2-3 tbsp water or low-sodium unsalted stock

Preparation

  1. Cook the tiny pasta in boiling water until very soft, then drain.

  2. Steam or boil the peas until soft and tender.

  3. Cook the chicken breast thoroughly until fully done and no longer pink inside.

  4. Finely shred or chop the cooked chicken into very small pieces.

  5. Combine pasta, peas, and chicken, then mash lightly or blend to a soft textured bowl adding water or stock as needed.

  6. Stir in olive oil if using and mix well.

  7. Cool to lukewarm before serving.

Serving by Age

Fully cook the chicken, soften wheat pasta completely and thoroughly mash all round peas. Bind minced chicken into a moist bowl rather than offering loose tough strands or intact peas.

8 months+

This recipe is listed for 8m+, so the 6m+ field does not recommend serving it earlier. Within the listed age range and when your baby can manage the texture, mash or blend to a soft, slightly textured consistency with well-cooked tiny pasta for easy swallowing.

9 months+

Serve as a soft bowl with very tender pasta and finely chopped or shredded chicken; ensure pieces are small and easy to manage.

Food safety check

  • Cook chicken and turkey all the way through: no pink inside, and 74°C (165°F) in the thickest part if you use a thermometer.

Contains wheat from the specified tiny pasta; check pasta and stock labels for egg, milk, soy or other ingredients. Green peas are legumes and may cause individual reactions.
