Try our creamy Tuscan chicken, then try creamy chicken curry, chicken fricasse, chicken stroganoff or chicken supreme.

You could add some finely diced carrot or leek to the sauce along with the sundried tomatoes for extra flavour, if you like. Serve over cooked pasta or with crusty bread or boiled potatoes on the side.

Method

  • step 1

    Combine the flour with the dried herbs and seasoning on a plate. Dust the chicken all over with the mixture.

  • step 2

    Heat the oil from the jar of sundried tomatoes in a large, deep, lidded frying pan and cook the chicken over a medium-high heat for 2-3 mins on each side or until golden brown. Remove the chicken with tongs to a plate.

  • step 3

    Reduce the heat and cook the tomatoes and garlic in the pan for 1-2 mins or until aromatic. Increase the heat and pour in the wine, bubbling for 1 min. Return the chicken to the pan, skin-side up, before pouring the stock around the chicken. Cover with a lid and cook for 12-15 mins over a low simmer or until the chicken is cooked through.

  • step 4

    Remove the chicken with tongs to a plate. Stir in the spinach, cream, parmesan and parsley, and cover with a lid, cooking over a low heat for 4 mins. Stir well to combine, then serve the chicken with the sauce, extra parsley and parmesan.
