Pan-seared chicken sausages with spinach
These sausages are already seasoned and stuffed with feta, so they need only a hot pan and the spinach cooks right alongside. The cheese inside keeps them moist while the casing crisps, and everything comes together in under thirty minutes.

From your shelf
- 4 chicken sausages
- 4 cups spinach
- 2 tablespoons feta cheese
Staples
- 1 tablespoon oil
- to taste salt
- to taste pepper
- 1 clove garlic
- Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Lay the 4 sausages in the pan without moving them for 3 minutes until the casing browns.
- Turn the sausages and cook 4 more minutes, turning once more to brown all sides, until they feel firm when pressed. Transfer to a plate.
- Mince 1 clove garlic into the same pan with the remaining fat, stir for 10 seconds until fragrant, then add the 4 cups spinach by the handful, tossing with tongs until wilted, about 2 minutes. Taste and add salt and pepper as needed.
- Return the sausages to the pan, nestling them into the spinach, and crumble 2 tablespoons feta over the top. Toss gently once and serve from the pan.
Note Swap in kale or chard if spinach has wilted. Leftovers keep three days, reheated gently in a skillet; wrap any leftover sausage in a tortilla with the spinach for lunch. Serve with crusty bread or over rice to soak up the pan juices.
