  3. To make the sauce: Prepare formula as per instructions on pack.
  4. Put flour, margarine and hot formula into a bowl and whisk until it thickens.
  5. Add white sauce to the chicken mixture and simmer gently for a further 5 minutes, then stir in the spinach and cook for a minute or two until wilted.
  6. Serve with rice, couscous or quinoa.

Chef's tip: To make this dish vegetarian omit the chicken and use tofu cubes (be aware that tofu is soya based) or any cooked beans instead.
