Instructions
- Place the flour, salt, pepper, and 2 teaspoon paprika on a plate and give it a mix.

- Place an oven-proof frying pan or skillet on medium heat with your olive oil. Add in the chicken and fry for 4-5 minutes on each side until evenly golden brown and cooked through. Transfer to a plate, cover, and set aside.
- Preheat your oven to 200C (390F) or 180C (350F) fan.
- In the same pan, fry the garlic for a minute and then add in your chicken stock to deglaze the pan by scraping any bits that have stuck to the bottom of the pan.
- Add in your cream, sun-dried tomatoes, butterbeans, oregano, paprika, chilli flakes, parmesan, spinach, and cooked chicken (sliced into bitesized pieces). Season with salt and pepper and taste to adjust the seasoning. Simmer for 5 minutes.
- Crumple up your filo sheets one at a time and place them onto your marry me chicken mixture, covering the whole mixture with all your filo sheets.
- Drizzle with melted butter then place in the oven for 20-30 minutes or until golden and crispy.
