Ingredients for 1 serving
266 g | chicken breast | 95 g | chopped tomatoes | 46 g | onions, chopped | 6 g | olive oil | 66 g | mozzarella, torn into medium pieces | 48 ml | sweet chilli sauce | 149 g | spinach | 0.5 | lemon, juice only | 2 tsp | dried oregano | 20 ml | water | salt and pepper |
Method
- Pre-heat your oven to 190°C fan/400°F and line a baking sheet with non stick foil.
- Arrange the chicken breast and onion on a baking tray.
- Mix the chopped tomato in a jug with half of the olive oil, sweet chilli sauce, water, 1 tsp of dried oregano and season to taste.
- Pour the tomato mixture over the chicken and sprinkle the remaining dried oregano over the chicken.
- Cover with some foil, this is going to stop the chicken going dry and bake for 20 minutes.
- Then remove the foil, cover the chicken with the mozzarella pieces and bake for a further 5 or so minutes until the cheese is a light golden brown.
- Wilt the spinach and pop it in a bowl with the remaining olive oil, lemon juice and season to taste.
- Pop the chicken on a plate arrange the warm spinach salad beside the chicken.
Recipe Notes
- Batch cook this recipe and save the extra portion for tomorrow.
- For those on 2018 BC plans, sweet chilli sauce is a swap for other side sauces provided you choose one with equivalent macros.
- Traditionally in Italian cooking you would use the smallest pinch of sugar to take any acidity out of the tomatoes but for this recipe I am using the sweet chilli sauce to do that.
