STEP BY STEP

Let’s make it.

Heat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Mix the almond meal, butter, 50 g beaten egg and one-third of the salt. Press into a lined 23 cm tart tin, covering the base and sides. Prick the base and bake for 12 minutes.
Heat the oil in a skillet. Cook the diced chicken for 6–8 minutes until it reaches 165°F (74°C). Add the garlic and spinach and cook until the spinach wilts and excess liquid evaporates.
Whisk the remaining egg with the cream, pepper and remaining salt. Spread the chicken and spinach in the part-baked crust and scatter with mozzarella.
Pour in the egg mixture and bake for 25–35 minutes, until the middle is set and reaches 165°F (74°C). Shield the crust edges if needed.
Rest for 10 minutes before cutting into 6 servings.

Kitchen notes

The chicken is weighed raw; cook it before filling the tart. The egg amount in the crust scales with the selected servings.
