Southern-style Chicken & Creamy Veg Pasta

This was one of those last-minute, throw-something-together-quick type meals! I hadn't been to the shops, so was limited to what we had in the fridge/freezer/larder. I remembered hubby had bought some Southern-style chicken fillets last week (proper chicken breast pieces, not the dodgy "reformed"stuff), so they went in the oven while I cooked some tripolini (curly-edged, tagliatelle-type pasta) and made a sauce.

I sauteed some red onion slices, broccoli florets and sliced mushrooms in oil and butter, added frozen sweetcorn kernels at the end, then poured in a little cream, milk and dissolved cornflour to thicken. The only seasoning was freshly-ground black pepper and it was delicious! The garlic bread was a step too far, actually ... we couldn't manage it!
