Method

You will need

Baking tray
  1. 1.

    Preheat the oven to 220°C/ 200°C (fan)/ gas 7, then take your chicken out of the fridge, open the packet and let it air

    Chop your potatoes (skins on) into bite-sized pieces, then add them to a baking tray (or two!) with your cherry tomatoes

    Drizzle with 1 tbsp olive oil, season with a pinch of salt and give it a good mix up

  2. 2.

    Put the trays in the oven for 10-15 min or until everything is starting to brown

    After 10-15 min, move the tomatoes and potatoes to one side of the trays, then add your chicken

    Return the trays to the oven for a further 18-20 min or until the chicken is cooked through (no pink meat!) and the potatoes are crispy

    (Doubled your protein? Do this in batches!)

  3. 3.

    While the chicken is cooking, boil a full kettle

    Dissolve your chicken stock mix in 150ml boiled water

    Peel and finely slice (don't chop!) your garlic

  4. 4.

    Wash your spinach, then add to a colander and pour boiled water all over it so that it starts to wilt

    Rinse the wilted spinach under cold running water until it's cool

    Once cool, squeeze as much water out of the spinach as you can

  5. 5.

    Heat a large, wide-based pan (preferably non-stick) with 1/2 tbsp olive oil over a medium-low heat

    Once hot, add the sliced garlic and cook for 2-3 min or until softened but not browned

  6. 6.

    Once softened, add 1 tsp flour and cook for 1 min

    Add the chicken stock and cook for 2-3 min or until thickened

    Once thickened, add your soft cheese and stir it all together – this is your creamy sauce

  7. 7.

    Add the wilted spinach and roasted tomatoes to the creamy sauce and gently mix together – this is your creamy spinach & tomato sauce

    Slice the cooked chicken finely on a clean board

  8. 8.

    To serve, spoon the creamy spinach & tomato sauce over the sliced chicken

    Serve the crispy potatoes to the side and finish with a grind of black pepper

    Enjoy!
