WHY IT’S LIGHT Lean chicken breast replaces the more common corned beef in a hearty-yet-healthy hash. For more flavor, roast the chicken with bones and skin intact, then remove them once the chicken is cooked. Spinach is another unexpected—and fat-free—addition.

　　

Ingredients

serves 4

　　2 bone-in, skin-on chicken breast halves (12 to 14 ounces each)

　　2 tablespoons olive oil

　　Coarse salt and ground pepper

　　2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves

　　1 1/2 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes, cut into 3/4-inch pieces

　　2 large shallots, finely chopped

　　2 garlic cloves, minced

　　2 tablespoons water

　　1/2 pound spinach, trimmed, washed, and coarsely chopped

　　2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

　　

Step 1

Preheat oven to 450°F. Place chicken on a rimmed baking sheet. Drizzle with 2 teaspoons oil, dividing evenly, and season with salt, pepper, and the thyme. Roast until chicken is cooked through (an instant-read thermometer inserted in thickest part, avoiding bone, should register 160°F), about 35 minutes. When cool enough to handle, discard skin and bones; cut chicken into bite-size pieces.

　　

Step 2

Meanwhile, in a medium saucepan, cover potatoes with water. Bring to a boil and add salt; cook until potatoes are tender when pierced with the tip of a paring knife, about 15 minutes; drain.

　　

Step 3

In a large skillet, heat remaining 1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon oil over medium-high. Add shallots and cook, stirring, until softened, about 3 minutes. Add garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant, 30 seconds. Add potatoes and cook, stirring often, until golden brown, about 7 minutes. Add the water, scraping up browned bits from bottom of pan with a wooden spoon. Cook, stirring often, until skillet is dry and potatoes are browned, about 3 minutes more.

　　

Step 4

Add chicken and spinach; cook, stirring, until spinach wilts and chicken is heated through, about 2 minutes. Stir in lemon juice and season with salt and pepper. Serve immediately.
