Ingredients
To make Spinach and Feta Stuffed Chicken Kievs, you'll need:
  • 4 boneless chicken breasts, 600g
  • 8 slices Parma ham
  • 200g fresh spinach
  • 120g feta cheese, crumbled
  • 2 tbsp. pine nuts
  • Rocket and watercress
  • 2 tbsp. olive oil
  • 2 tsp. red wine vinegar for salad dressing
  • Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste 

Method

  •  Preheat oven at Gas Mark 4 or 180°C.
  • Toast the pine nuts in a saucepan on a medium heat for 3-4 minutes and place aside.
  • Throw the spinach into a saucepan and cook for 2-3 minutes until it wilts, stirring regularly. Remove from the heat and set aside to cool slightly. Drain the spinach and squeeze as much excess liquid out as possible in a colander or by hand.
  • Use a large knife to coarsely chop the spinach, and transfer to a small bowl. Add in the feta and pine nuts and stir to combine. Season to taste with salt and freshly ground pepper.
  • Cut a small pocket in the side of each chicken breast. Spoon the spinach mixture into each pocket. Wrap 2 slices of Parma ham around each one to enclose the filling.
  • Place the chicken on a baking tray and pop in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.
  • Mix the olive oil and red wine vinegar in a small bowl/jug and pour it on the rocket and watercress.
  • To serve, put 2 Kievs on a dinner plate alongside the dressed rocket and watercress salad.
