Ingredients
- 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 4 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 2 cups fresh spinach leaves
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
Directions
Step 1
Season the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper on both sides.
Step 2
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook for 5-6 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove them from the skillet and set aside.
Step 3
In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and melt the butter. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
Step 4
Pour in the chicken broth and bring it to a simmer, scraping up any brown bits from the bottom of the skillet.
Step 5
Reduce the heat to low, add the heavy cream, and stir until combined.
Step 6
Sprinkle in the grated Parmesan cheese and continue to stir until the cheese has melted and the sauce has thickened slightly.
Step 7
Toss in the fresh spinach leaves and Italian seasoning, cooking until the spinach has wilted, about 2-3 minutes.
Step 8
Return the chicken breasts to the skillet, spooning the creamy sauce over each piece.
Step 9
Simmer for another 2-3 minutes to allow the chicken to soak up the flavors.
Step 10
Serve the chicken hot, with the creamy sauce and spinach over the top.
