Macaroni with chicken and spinach by Zomick's

I love spinach. I have been reading a lot of his high nutritional value. The spinach is used in many combinations, in many types of dishes but in almost every dish the spinach is overcooked i.e. processed. For this recipe the spinach doesn't have to be highly processed which is important in perceiving all the vitamins and nutrients.

Ingredients:

• 1 package macaroni
• 4 pieces of chicken breast (about 500-600 g)
• 4 cloves garlic (finely chopped)
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 350 ml white wine or chicken broth (Cube) (can be mixed)
• 250 g young spinach
• 200 g cherry tomatoes (or plain tomato)

Method of preparation:

1. Cook the macaroni according to the instructions on the package. After cooking drain them well and set aside.
2. Cut the chicken meat into medium sized cubes, spice it with salt and black pepper. Place the frying pan on high heat; add olive oil and butter and preheat them before adding the meat. Add the meat in the frying pan.
3. Fry the chicken cubes for several minutes on each side (without mixing), keep frying until the meat is softened in the middle and gets nice golden brown color.
4. Take the meat off the heat. In the same oil where the meat was fried add garlic, cook the garlic for about 30 seconds and add the wine or chicken broth. Place the mixture to boil on medium heat or until the volume is reduced to half. When the mixture nice boiled and cooked enough add the spinach leafs, tomatoes cut in bigger slices, the chicken meat (along with the sauce form the pan) and at the end add the macaroni.
5. Sprinkle spices of your choice over the prepared dish. I prefer to sprinkle black pepper, some ground kosher salt and thyme.

This dish is best eaten right after it is being prepared. It tastes best when it is still hot.
