Marijuana-Infused Chicken Marinara Pasta [Recipe]
If you’re looking for a great recipe to share with friends… well, you’ve found it. This chicken marinara pasta is THC-infused (with canna-ghee), tastes delicious, and is so filling. As a result, it’s perfect for laid back dinner parties.
You don’t need to be a canna chef to whip up this 420-friendly dinner. It can be broken up into 3 steps:
- Prepare and bake the chicken
- Cook the pasta
- Prepare the marinara

After that, you simply put it all together and top with your favorite cheese (I put feta on Aaron’s dinner). For myself, I opted for something more plant-based.
You know what makes it even better? Finishing this entree with a local, Colorado craft beer.

- 1 1/2 tsp sea salt
Directions:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.

- Place chicken breasts on the tray, cover with 1 Tbsp canna-ghee or canna-butter each. Sprinkle herb mix and sea salt on top.

Pasta
Ingredients:
- 2 quarts of water
- 16 oz spaghetti pasta
- sea salt
- 1 Tbsp canna-ghee
Directions:
- 8 minutes before the chicken breasts are done, boil a pot of water (2 quarts) on the stove.
- Once it has reached boiling point, turn to medium heat and add the spaghetti pasta. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Once the noodles are soft, strain them. Return the noodles to the pot and add 1 Tbsp of canna-ghee (optional).
