Chicken with fried potatoes and green pea sauce


This started as an experiment but ended as one of my tastiest dishes! This is what you need: 

1 chicken breast
2 dl green peas
1 dl frozen spinach
a few potatoes
1 shallot
2 small cloves of garlic
1 tbsp creme fraiche
1 slice of breas
salt
pepper
butter


Start by pitting the potatoes in a pan with water just covering them and some salt. Bring it to a boil and lower the heat so that the potatoes aren't hard boiling. Cut the chicken into bite size pieces and fry them in some butter together with a little bit of salt. 


Once the potatoes have finished cooking remove them from the water and slice them in halves, then fry them as well in a little bit of butter and salt. After that put the peas and spinach in some water and follow the packet instructions. I boiled the peas and the spinach together for a few minutes. 


When the peas are done cooking remove them from the water, chop up the shallot, and one of the cloves of garlic. Put them in a pan and fry them off for just a minute or two so that they get a bit fragrant. Put the peas and the spinach into the pan and remove from the heat. I used a stick blender to blend the peas, spinach, shallot and garlic together with the creme fraiche. If it's too thick you can add some water


Add salt and pepper to your taste. After that I decided to do some garlic bread, chop up the other garlic clove and then mix it with some butter and a little bit of salt, spread it on the bread and then fry it on both sides in a dry pan.

Alternatively you can do garlic bread in an oven if you have one! 

Plate it and enjoy some chicken with a great green creamy sauce.
