Ingredients

• 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 4 pieces garlic cloves, minced
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 2 cups baby spinach
• 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
• 1 cup vegetable stock
• 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

Directions

Step 1

Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper on both sides.

Step 2

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken breasts and sear them for 5-6 minutes on each side until golden brown and fully cooked. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

Step 3

In the same skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.

Step 4

Pour in the heavy cream and vegetable stock, stirring to combine. Bring to a gentle simmer.

Step 5

Add the grated Parmesan cheese to the skillet and stir until melted and the sauce thickens slightly, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 6

Stir in the Italian seasoning, baby spinach, and cherry tomatoes. Cook until the spinach wilts and the tomatoes soften, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 7

Return the chicken breasts to the skillet, spooning the sauce and vegetables over the top. Reduce the heat to low and let everything warm through for 5 minutes.

Step 8

Serve the chicken breasts with the creamy garlic sauce and vegetables over rice, mashed potatoes, or pasta. Garnish with additional Parmesan cheese if desired.
