STIR-FRIED CHICKEN WITH SPINACH, TOMATOES AND PINE NUTS

STIR-FRIED CHICKEN WITH SPINACH, TOMATOES AND PINE NUTS

Serves 4

Approx. 3.5 Syns per serving

25g pine nuts - 9 Syns
1 tbsp. oil - 6 Syns
1 red onion, peeled and finely chopped
450g skinless chicken breast, cut into strips
450g cherry tomatoes, halved
225g baby spinach
Sprinkle of dried nutmeg
2 tbsp. balsamic vinegar

Heat a non-stick wok or frying pan and add the pine nuts. Dry-fry for about 2 minutes, shaking often to make sure they roast but don't burn. Remove from the pan and reserve.
Wipe any dust from the pan, heat the pan again and add the oil.
Stir-fry the onion for 2 minutes. Add the chicken and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes, or until golden.
Reduce the heat, add the tomatoes and stir-fry gently until they start to break down.
Add the washed baby spinach and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes or until it starts to wilt.
Season to taste with pepper, then sprinkle in the nutmeg and balsamic vinegar.

Finally, stir in the pine nuts and serve immediately.
