Chicken Leeks And Spinach Recipes

Steps:

• clean and trim chicken.
• clean and slice leeks.
• rinse and drain spinach.
• place chicken on a sheet of foil (large enough to make a packet with the veggies).
• evenly divide and place leeks and spinach on top of chicken.
• wrap foil around chicken and veggies.
• bake at 375 for 35 minutes or until chicken is no longer pink.

Steps:

• Preheat broiler with rack 8 inches from heating element. Combine leeks, potatoes, broth, and 2 tablespoons oil in a large ovenproof skillet. Season with salt and pepper. Broil, stirring once halfway through, until potatoes are crisp-tender, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, rub chicken with remaining 1 tablespoon oil. Season with coriander, salt, and pepper, then place, skin-side down, atop leeks and potatoes. Broil 8 minutes. Flip chicken; scatter lemon wedges around it. Broil until a thermometer inserted into thickest parts of thighs (avoiding bones) registers 165 degrees, 10 to 12 minutes more. Transfer chicken to serving plates. Stir spinach into leek-potato mixture until wilted. Serve chicken with vegetables, lemon wedges, and pan juices.

Steps:

• Trim the leeks, leaving only the white and pale green parts.
• Slice them in half lenthwise, then in short slices crosswise.
• Wash them again and drain them well.
• In a large skillet, saute the leeks in the butter until they soften and begin to fall apart, then stir in the flour.
• Add the stock and season lightly with salt and nutmeg stirring well.
• Simmer for 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, wash the spinach and pick it over.
• Drain it well and chop it finely.
• Add the spinach to the leeks and simmer for a further 5 minutes, stirring to ensure the spinach is evenly cooked.
