Crispy Chicken & Asparagus Bake
Serves 2
Description
A simple and super-healthy supper dish! For a change, try this dish with fish such as cod or haddock fillets in place of chicken and add prawns in place of ham
Ingredients
2 chicken breasts (cut into strips)
100g (4oz) asparagus (roughly chopped)
50g (2oz) frozen peas (defrosted)
25g (1oz) baby spinach leaves
75g (3oz) ham (roughly chopped)
100ml (4fl oz) half-fat creme fraiche
50g (2oz) breadcrumbs (from Juvela white or fibre loaf)
100g (4oz) asparagus (roughly chopped)
50g (2oz) frozen peas (defrosted)
25g (1oz) baby spinach leaves
75g (3oz) ham (roughly chopped)
100ml (4fl oz) half-fat creme fraiche
50g (2oz) breadcrumbs (from Juvela white or fibre loaf)
Instructions
Spread the chicken evenly in a shallow baking dish and place under a medium grill for about 8-10minutes, turning occasionally until cooked through. Meanwhile, place the vegetables in a bowl and pour over boiling water; leave for 2-3minutes, then drain. Scatter the vegetables and ham over the chicken, top with the crème fraiche and season to taste. Sprinkle the breadcrumbs on top and return to the grill for a few minutes until topping is crisp and golden brown.
