Ingredients:
- Oil for frying
- 500g chicken breast cut into bite sized pieces
- 1 onion finely sliced
- 1 tbsp flour
- 350ml milk
- 100g garlic and herb soft cheese (I use Boursin)
- 1 tsp dijon mustard
- 100g sliced ham cut into roughly postage stamp size pieces
- Salt and pepper
- A large handful of fresh spinach, roughly chopped
===============
Method:
- Heat a drizzle of oil in a large non-stick frying pan. Add the chicken and onion and fry on a medium heat for 5 minutes until the chicken is no longer pink.
- Stir in the flour for about a minute, until it has all been absorbed.
- Slowly add the milk to the pan, bringing it to the boil each time before adding more. Stir continuously.
- when all of the milk is used up add the soft cheese, dijon mustard, ham and season with salt and pepper. Stir until the cheese has melted into the sauce.
- Bring the sauce to the boil, turn the heat down low and gently simmer for 5 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through.
- Turn off the heat and stir in the spinach. Leave to rest for 2 minutes before serving.
