Large frying pan
Sharp knife
Wooden spoon or spatula
Measuring spoons
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup chicken broth
- 1/2 cup shredded parmesan cheese
- 1 cup fresh spinach
- 1/2 cup chopped sun-dried tomatoes (oil-packed)
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- Salt and pepper to taste
Season both sides of the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning.
Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the chicken breasts and cook for 5-7 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the pan and set it aside.
In the same pan, add the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute or until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
Pour in the chicken broth and heavy cream. Stir to combine and allow it to cook for 3-4 minutes, letting the sauce thicken.
Stir in the shredded parmesan cheese and Italian seasoning. Continue stirring until the cheese melts and the sauce becomes creamy. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if needed.
Add the fresh spinach and chopped sun-dried tomatoes to the pan. Stir until the spinach wilts and blends into the sauce.
