Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 160°C/320°F (fan). Trim any fat from the chicken breasts.
- Beat the egg lightly in a shallow bowl.
- In another shallow bowl, mix the flour, salt, pepper, oregano, thyme, paprika and garlic salt.
- Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat.
- Dip the chicken in the egg, then coat it in the flour mixture.
- Fry the chicken on both sides until golden.
- Move the chicken to a tray and bake for 10 minutes to finish cooking while you make the sauce.
- Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in the same pan over medium heat.
- Add the onion and cook for 3 to 4 minutes until it starts to soften.
- Add the garlic, oregano, paprika, sun-dried tomatoes, red pepper and tomato purée. Cook for 2 minutes, stirring constantly.
- Pour in the wine and let it bubble for 2 minutes.
- Add the chicken stock, salt and pepper. Bring to the boil, then simmer for 5 minutes.
- Stir in the cream, parmesan and spinach. Cook for a couple of minutes until the spinach wilts.
- Take the chicken out of the oven and check it is cooked: a knife inserted into the thickest piece should show no pink. Add it to the sauce and cook for another couple of minutes.
- Sprinkle with chopped parsley to serve.
