Cook Time: 20 minutes
Total Time: 35 minutes
Serving Size: 4 servings
Ingredients:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 6 oz each)
- 1/2 tsp kosher salt and 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 1/2 tsp dried Italian seasoning
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 4 garlic cloves, minced
- 1/3 cup chopped sun-dried tomatoes, drained if oil-packed
- 3/4 cup low-sodium chicken broth
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1/3 cup finely grated Parmesan
- 2 cups baby spinach
- Lemon wedge for serving (optional)
Directions:
- Pat the chicken dry, season with salt, pepper and Italian seasoning, and heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Sear the chicken 5-7 minutes per side until golden and 165°F (74°C) inside, then move to a plate and tent loosely.
- Reduce to medium-low, stir the garlic and sun-dried tomatoes for 30 seconds, then add the broth and scrape up the browned bits.
- Stir in the cream and Parmesan and simmer gently 2-3 minutes, then stir in the spinach until just wilted. Loosen with a splash of broth if too thick.
- Return the chicken and its juices to the pan, turn to coat and warm through. Finish with lemon if you like.
