- 75 g (3oz) cheese, eg, Red Leicester, white Stilton or creamy Gorgonzola
- 50 ml (2fl oz) dry white wine
- 150 ml (1⁄4 pint) chicken stock (see tip)
- 4 skinless chicken breast fillets
- 60 ml (4tbsp) reduced-fat crème fraîche

Roughly grate or chop the cheese. Place the wine and stock in a large saucepan and bring to the boil. Add the chicken breasts, reduce the heat, cover with a lid and simmer for about 10min or until the chicken is cooked through. Using a slotted spoon, remove the chicken and set aside in a warm place.
- Step 2
Bring the liquor back to the boil and bubble for 10-15min or until it starts to become syrupy.
- Step 3
Remove from heat and add the cheese, stirring until melted. Add the crème fraîche. Slice chicken breasts on the diagonal and pour the sauce over. Serve immediately on a bed of spinach; garnish with chopped fresh chives.

If you're using a stock cube
