Creamy Garlic Chicken with Spinach Flavorful Delight

Ingredients

• 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 1 cup chicken broth
• 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
• 2 cups fresh spinach, chopped
• 0.5 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• to taste salt and pepper
• optional fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

1. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper.
2. Once the oil is hot, add the chicken breasts to the skillet and cook for 6-7 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
3. In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
4. Pour in the chicken broth, scraping the bottom of the skillet to deglaze it. Allow it to simmer for 2-3 minutes.
5. Reduce heat to low and stir in the heavy cream and Italian seasoning. Bring to a light simmer, stirring occasionally.
6. Add the Parmesan cheese to the sauce, mixing until it’s fully incorporated and creamy.
7. Stir in the chopped spinach and let it wilt in the sauce for about 2 minutes.
8. Return the cooked chicken to the skillet, coating it with the creamy spinach sauce. Heat through for another 2-3 minutes.
9. Taste and adjust the seasoning, adding more salt and pepper if needed.
