INGREDIENTS:
baby spinach x 1 bag
pitted dates x 100 gr (cut into small pieces)
crushed garlic x 1 tsp
cherry tomatoes x 20 (halved)
cottage cheese x 1 tub (chunky)
chicken breasts x 4 (skinless)
mixed seeds x 2 Tbsp
salt + cinnamon (to taste)
coconut oil/avocado oil (these are optimal for frying in high temperatures!)
METHOD:
Preheat the oven to 200*C.
Heat a pan to medium heat and dry-fry the seeds for a minute or two until toasted.
Cut the sweet potato (with the skin on) in half lengthwise with a sharp knife.
Rub it with butter on the inside and sprinkle with a pinch of salt and cinnamon.
Close the two halves and wrap in foil. Bake until soft.
In the meantime, heat up some oil in the pan and fry the chicken strips for 5 minutes.
Add the garlic, salt and dates and cook for another 10 minutes, stirring regularly.
