BALSAMIC CHICKEN WITH BABY SPINACH
Steps:
- Heat a large saute pan over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil and heat. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute. Add the chicken and cook about 4 minutes per side, or until cooked through and juices run clear. Remove the chicken and set aside. To the same pan, add the spinach and cook just until wilted, about 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from the pan and set aside. Lower the heat to medium and add the balsamic vinegar and chicken broth to the pan and stir, scraping the bottom of the pan to remove any browned bits. Add the tomatoes, bring to a simmer and cook 3 to 5 minutes.
- Place the couscous in a serving bowl. Top with the spinach, chicken and balsamic-tomato sauce.

Steps:
- Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and spray with cooking oil spray.
- Add the garlic and cook gently, do not brown.
- Add the chicken and cook until chicken is just about cooked through, turning regularly so both sides cook evenly.
- Add the wine, tomato paste and herbs.
- Stir so that the paste mixes into the wine.
- Bring to a simmer and cook about 5 minutes or until chicken is just cooked through.
- Add the spinach leaves and mix through so they just wilt then quickly remove from the heat.
- Serve the chicken with spinach leaves on top and sauce drizzled over the spinach.
- Nice served with steamed broccoli and pasta or potatoes.
Tips:
- Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all the ingredients and equipment you need. This will help you stay organized and prevent any scrambling during the cooking process.
- Choose the right chicken: For this recipe, boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs are best. You can also use a whole chicken, but you'll need to adjust the cooking time.
- Brown the chicken: Browning the chicken before braising it gives it a nice color and flavor. Make sure you brown the chicken in a hot skillet over medium-high heat. Don't overcrowd the skillet, or the chicken won't brown properly.
- Use a good-quality red wine: The red wine you use for braising the chicken should be one that you would enjoy drinking. A full-bodied red wine, such as a Cabernet Sauvignon or Merlot, will work well.
- Don't boil the wine: When you add the red wine to the skillet, bring it to a simmer over medium heat. Do not boil the wine, or the alcohol will evaporate and the sauce will lose its flavor.
- Cook the chicken until it is tender: The chicken is done cooking when it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit. You can use a meat thermometer to check the temperature.
- Serve immediately: Once the chicken is cooked, serve it immediately with the red wine sauce and baby spinach. You can also garnish the dish with fresh parsley or chives.
Conclusion:
This tender chicken and baby spinach in red wine is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The chicken is braised in a flavorful red wine sauce and served over baby spinach. The dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
