Method
1
Cut chicken into bite-sized pieces, then season all over with 1 teaspoon of the salt
2
Melt 2 tablespoons unsalted butter in a large pot over medium-high heat. Working in 2 batches, add the chicken in a single layer and cook until browned on both sides and cooked through, 5 minutes per batch. Transfer the chicken to a plate
3
Add onion, pepper and the remaining salt to the pot. Reduce the heat to medium and cook, stirring occasionally until the onion is softened and translucent, 3 to 4 minutes
4
Add the garlic and cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Then stir in sun-dried tomatoes and tomato paste. Cook, stirring often, until the tomato paste is slightly darkened in colour
5
Stir in 6 cups chicken broth, thyme, and chilli flakes if using
6
Return the chicken to the pot. Add baby spinach, heavy cream, and grated parmesan cheese. Cook, stirring often, until the spinach is wilted and the chicken is warmed through, about 2 minutes. Taste and season with more salt and pepper as needed
Soup Method
1
Preheat oven to 180 celcius
2
Cut your Hi-Fibre Lo-GI Wholemeal Loaf into roughly 1cm square pieces or desired crouton size
3
Place your croutons on a baking tray lined with baking paper
4
Drizzle the croutons with a generous amount of olive oil. Sprinkle with sea salt. Toss with fingers until all croutons are covered in oil
5
Place croutons in the oven for 15-20 minutes, until crispy and golden. We recommend giving them a toss halfway through cooking
6
Allow to cool and then serve on top of the soup
