Serves 4
10 mins
Ingredients
- 4 Quorn Vegan ChiQin Fillets
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tbsp Butter
For the ChiQin Dredge:
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ tsp pepper
- 2 tsp Italian seasoning
- ½ cup flour
- ¼ cup parmesan cheese, finely shredded
- 1 tsp garlic powder
For the Florentine Sauce:
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 ½ cups white wine
- 1 cup half and half
- ⅓ cup softened cream cheese
- 3 cups fresh spinach
- ½ fresh lemon or 1.5 tablespoons lemon juice
- Fresh parsley, to garnish
Method
- Set the Quorn Vegan ChiQin Fillets out on the counter over paper towel for 10 mins to start thawing.
- Combine the chicken dredge ingredients. Coat the Quorn Vegan ChiQin Fillets in the flour mixture, tap off any excess.
- Melt the butter and olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the Quorn Vegan ChiQin Fillets and cover the pan. Cook for 5 minutes per side (10-12 mins total), until golden. If needed, sear in 2 separate batches. Set aside on a plate once cooked and hot throughout.
- Decrease heat to medium and add the garlic. Cook for 1 minute.
- Add the white wine and scrape up the brown bits from the pan with a spatula to add flavor to the sauce. Increase heat slightly and allow it to gently bubble until the liquid is reduced by half, about 5 minutes.
- Heat the half and half in the microwave for 40 seconds to up-temper it. Bit by bit, slowly add it to the skillet, stirring as you go. Bring it to a gentle bubble, then reduce heat to low.
- Stir in the softened cream cheese until smooth and combined. Add spinach until it’s soft and wilted.
- Add the lemon juice and return the Quorn Vegan ChiQin Fillets back to the pan. Cover to heat through. Sprinkle with parsley and serve!
