Ingredients
- 4 boneless, skinless Chicken Breasts
- Salt & Pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons Olive Oil
- 4 cloves Garlic, minced
- ½ cup Sun-Dried Tomatoes, chopped
- 3 cups Spinach, fresh
- 1 cup Heavy Cream
- ½ cup Parmesan Cheese, grated
- 1 teaspoon Italian Seasoning
- Fresh Basil for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Season both sides of the chicken breasts generously with salt and pepper.
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the chicken breasts and cook for 5-7 minutes on each side or until they reach an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C). Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and add the minced garlic. Sauté for about 30 seconds, stirring constantly to prevent burning.
- Add the chopped sun-dried tomatoes and fresh spinach to the skillet. Cook until the spinach wilts down, about 2-3 minutes.
- Pour in the heavy cream, Italian seasoning, and Parmesan cheese. Stir until the cheese melts and the sauce thickens, approximately 3-5 minutes.
- Return the cooked chicken to the skillet, coating it with the creamy sauce. Allow it to simmer for an additional 2-3 minutes.
- Garnish with fresh basil if desired and serve hot.
Notes
Use a meat thermometer for perfectly cooked chicken. Don’t skip the garlic, and adjust sauce thickness with broth or water.
