Spinach and Goat’s Cheese Fried Chicken

How to make it

This Spinach and Goat’s Cheese Fried Chicken uses Dazel Ash Log which is a soft goats cheese with a smooth clean flavour. It works well as a filler for these butterflied chicken breasts. Then serve with steamed veg and crushed new potatoes for a wonderful weekday dinner.

• Place clingfilm on top of each chicken breast and using a rolling pin,
  pound them slightly thinner
• Butterfly your chicken breasts – cut them 3/4 of the way through
• In a frying pan heat up some olive oil
• Fry the chicken breast in the frying pan on medium heat until they start to get golden brown and crispy on the outside
• If using frozen spinach, make sure it’s thawed and dried
• If using fresh spinach, steam and wilt, then squeeze all the liquid out of it
• Combine the spinach, Dazel Ash Log, chives and garlic in a bowl
  Spoon some of cheese mixture into the middle of the cooked
  chicken breasts – if you struggle to keep the filling in, use cocktail sticks to keep it together
• Turn the heat to low and put a lid on the frying pan. Heat for another few minutes until the cream cheese mixture has heated through
• Serve the Goat’s Cheese fried chicken with steamed veg and crushed new potatoes
