Cover and bash chicken breasts to 2cm thickness, then coat all over with cayenne pepper, garlic granules, onion granules and salt and pepper.
Heat olive oil in a large pan and cook chicken breast, on medium-low, 4 mins on each side, then pop in the oven 190°C/ 365°F, until cooked through (roughly 5-10 mins)
Bring a large saucepan of salted water to boil and cook pasta until al dente.
To the same pan as chicken, melt light butter, then whisk in plain flour 1 tbsp at a time, then gradually whisk in semi-skimmed milk until fully combined with no lumps. Stir in chipotle paste, onion granules, garlic granules and cayenne pepper, followed by light cheddar. Drain then add pasta - use pasta water to loosen if needed. Season to taste and you’re ready to serve.
Slice, then serve chicken breast on top - garnish with red chillies and dried parsley.
