- Finely chop the onion and cut the broccolini in half lengthways.
- Heat a generous drizzle of olive oil in a deep frying pan with a lid over medium-high heat, then fry the broccolini for 6 - 8 minutes, stirring regularly.
- Deglaze with a splash of water, put the lid on and fry the broccolini for another 4 - 8 minutes, or until cooked to your preference.
- Take the lid off for the last minute and season with salt and pepper to taste.
- In the meantime, heat a drizzle of olive oil in another deep frying pan over medium-high heat.
- Add the onion and the chicken meatballs, then cut the meatballs in half with a spatula or a wooden spoon.
- Fry the chicken meatballs for 4 - 6 minutes until cooked through.
- Add the cream and oregano to the chicken meatballs, then crumble in the stock cube (see pantry for amount).
- Bring to a boil, then cook for 4 - 5 minutes over low heat.
- Add the courgetti and basil crème. Season with salt and pepper to taste (see Tip).
Tip: serving the courgetti straight away helps it to keep its bite. If you'd prefer it softer, fry for another 1 – 2 minutes over medium-high heat.
- Serve the courgetti and chicken meatballs onto deep plates with the broccolini to the side.
- Finely grate the Parmigiano Reggiano over the broccolini.
