Cooking Steps
Prepare the stock. Chop the onion and thinly slice the carrot. Crush or mince the garlic. Wash or peel the potatoes and cut them into quarters. Finely chop the parsley.
Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat. Fry the potatoes for 20 minutes, covered, tossing regularly. Remove the lid and fry for 10 - 15 more minutes, seasoning with salt and pepper.
Melt a knob of butter in a pot or saucepan over high heat. Sear the chicken for 2 - 3 minutes per side, then remove from the pan and set aside.
Melt another knob of butter in the same pot over medium heat. Fry the onion, garlic and carrot for 3 - 4 minutes, then stir in the flour and fry for 1 more minute. Deglaze with the stock, then add the sprigs of thyme and mix well. Cover with the lid and allow to simmer for 10 minutes, then return the chicken to the pot and cook for 5 - 8 more minutes or until done.
Remove the lid and stir in the cream and the spinach, then season to taste with salt and pepper. Mix well and allow to reduce for 4 - 6 minutes, uncovered, then remove the thyme.
Did you know... spinach is full of nutrients but it is particularly rich in iron, which is essential for transporting oxygen throughout the body. This helps us feel energised.
Serve the potatoes with the chicken and the creamy spinach sauce. Garnish with the parsley to finish.
