Method

1. 0

   Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F). Lightly grease a medium baking dish or line with baking paper.

2. 1

   In a large pan over medium heat, cook the chicken mince until no longer pink, breaking it up with a spoon. Season lightly with salt and pepper if desired.

3. 2

   Add the chopped spinach to the pan and cook for 2–3 minutes until wilted (or heated through if using frozen). Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

4. 3

   In a large bowl, whisk together the 4 whole eggs and 2 cups of egg whites until well combined.

5. 4

   Stir the cottage cheese into the egg mixture, then fold in the cooked chicken and spinach until evenly distributed.

6. 5

   Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and smooth the top.

7. 6

   Bake for 30–35 minutes, or until the centre is set and the top is lightly golden. A knife inserted in the centre should come out mostly clean.

8. 7

   Remove from the oven and let rest for 5–10 minutes. Slice into 4 equal servings and drizzle each serve with 1 tsp of chilli oil just before eating.
