Place the chicken strips, salt, pepper, chilli powder, garlic, herbs and chickpea flour in a bowl and mix until the chicken is completely covered in the seasoning. Cover and leave in the fridge.
Bring 3 liters of water to the boil and season well with salt. Add in the dried pasta and cook for 4-5 minutes, until just under-cooked. If you’re using fresh pasta, boil for 1-2 minutes, also until just under-cooked.
