Cooking Instructions

Tips & Secrets

  • Shocking the blanched spinach in ice water is the secret to retaining its vibrant green color.
  • Do not overcook the spinach after adding it to the pot, as it can turn bitter and dark.
  • Using chicken thighs instead of breast keeps the meat tender and prevents it from drying out.
  • A pinch of nutmeg added at the end enhances the earthy flavor of the spinach beautifully.
