  2. When the water boils, salt it and cook the gluten-free pasta for the packet time, tasting a minute early, until al dente.
  3. Meanwhile heat the olive oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat and brown the chicken for 2 minutes per side, until golden and cooked through; season with salt.
  4. Add the capers, the lemon juice and a small ladle of the cooking water and let it reduce for 1–2 minutes, until slightly syrupy. Add the spinach and cook for a minute, until wilted.
  5. Drain the pasta and toss it in the pan with the chicken for a minute; finish with the parsley.
