Reply ##### rmtvsnzzh4zvnCEMPb 8 months ago I did ask I thought I’d taken breasts out of the freezer and it was thighs\! #### jogunner04688 1 year ago Really tasty dish. I would also recommend cooking the chicken separately first and then adding it. Big hit with the family\! Reply #### karenhosker3wHthRP3T 2 years ago I think better to cook the chicken through separately and add to the pan later as this method makes it a little chewy. Reply #### npfmc 2 years ago question Can this be made a day in advance and reheated? Reply ##### goodfoodteam 2 years ago Hi, thanks for your question. Yes it could be made a day ahead and kept in the fridge. Reheat until piping hot. If the sauce is a bit thick when reheating, you can add a splash of chicken stock or water to the sauce if needed. We hope this helps. Best wishes, BBC Good Food Team. #### smbarker1981 3 years ago question Help! I only have double cream in fridge can I use that?? Xx Reply ##### goodfoodteam 3 years ago Hi, thanks for your question. Yes double cream would be fine. We hope this helps. Best wishes, BBC Good Food Team.

Stir the herbs and spinach through the chicken and cook for a minute or so until the spinach wilts. Add the lemon juice and some seasoning. Serve spooned over the creamy mash.
