Ingredients

  • 2 Tbsp olive oil, plus a little extra for brushing over the pastry

  • 250 g / 8 ozs frozen spinach or substitute leaks if oxalate/histamine issues
  • 6 ready-cooked chicken thighs (or see tip, below)
  • 350 ml / 12 fl ozs hot chicken stock
  • ½ Tbsp wholegrain mustard

Method

  1. Heat oven to 200C/180C (392/356 F) fan/gas 6. Heat the oil in a large, shallow casserole dish on a medium heat. Add the spring onions and fry for 3 mins, then stir through the frozen spinach and cook for 2 mins or until it’s starting to wilt. Remove the skin from the chicken and discard. Shred the chicken off the bone and into the pan, and discard the bones. Stir through the stock and mustard. Bring to a simmer and cook, uncovered, for 5-10 mins.
