This is an absolute gem of a recipe. The chicken is so succulent and moist. The cream cheese and spinach works really well too.
- 4 boneless chicken thighs, skin removed
- 250g frozen chopped spinach, thawed, excess moisture removed really well
- 3 Tbsp cream cheese
- 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg, salt and white pepper
- 2 sheets frozen pre-rolled pastry, defrosted
- milk to glaze
- Mix spinach, cream cheese, nutmeg, S+P
- Cut pastry sheets diagonally in 1/2
- Place 1/4 of the spinach mixture on each pastry triangle and place chicken thigh on top
- Bring the long ends down to cover the chicken and fold the thicker corner on top to completely encase the chicken. Pinch ends together.
- Transfer to a greased (I prefer to use baking paper) oven tray and glaze with milk.
- Bake 220 oC 30 minutes.
I love spinach and I'm always looking for some good new recipes. Definitely going to try this one. Sounds delicious. Thanks for posting!
