DIRECTIONS
- Mix together the salt, pepper, garlic and onion powder, thyme, rosemary and paprika

- Transfer the potatoes into a baking pan
- Drizzle olive oil on the potatoes and season with salt and pepper
- Partially bake the potatoes in 400F / 204C preheated oven for 30 minutes
- When the chicken is done marinating, sear them in heated oil, skin side down, 3 minutes on each side or until golden brown.
- Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside for later
- In the same pan, saute the spinach until they wilt down
- Remove the spinach from the pan and set aside for later
- In the same pan, completely melt the butter

- Add the flour and cook for a minute to kick out the flour taste
- Add the chicken broth, and let the sauce cook and thicken

- When the potatoes come out of the oven, place the chicken on them, then add the spinach and the sauce
