METHOD

Pre-heat oven to 200C or 180C fan oven

​

Put the spinach into a colander then pour boiling water over the spinach until softened. Drain fully, squeezing out any excess water then chop and place into a dish.

​

Mix the ricotta, lemon zest, cinnamon and seasoning together. Add in the spinach, spooning it gently through the mixture.

​

Using a sharp knife, cut a slice into the side of each chicken breast and use your fingers to make a little pocket. Spoon the mixture into each chicken breast, then add a tiny bit of oil to the top of the chicken breast, adding the breadcrumbs and pressing down. Then place your chicken onto an oven proof dish.

​

Place your vegetable onto a roasting dish with the remaining oil and season well. Cook the chicken and vegetables for 30 mins.
