4 x Teaspoons of natural Garam Masala Seasoning from spice pouch
Method
Pat dry your chicken then lightly coat with olive oil and carefully cover the chicken on all sides with the Seasoning from the Spice Pouch, adding salt to your diet, then refrigerate for 30 minutes to allow the spices to settle. Then, return the chicken to room temperature and in a medium hot pan with a little olive oil brown the Seasoned chicken on all sides and set aside.
In the same pan, add a little more olive oil and fry down the onions, leeks and garlic until soft and caramelised and allow to sit in the pan for a few minutes to remove bitterness then stir.
Next add the white wine to deglaze the pan saving the nice brown bits, stir again then add the chicken stock and creme fraiche or double cream and Dijon Mustard. Brng the pan back to a simmer and add the spinach leaves and stir as the leaves wilt and allow the sauce to reduce a little.
Now return the chicken pieces to the pan, cover with the sauce and at a low simmer cook the chicken (about 20 minutes) until just firm. When serving sprinkle with the pecorino romano grated cheese.
Return the chicken to the pan and cover with the sauce
Now return the chicken to the pan, cover with the sauce and cook until the chicken is firm but not overcooked - about 20 minutes. Stir in the parsley and serve.
