Description

A simple and delicious one-pan chicken dish with a rich, creamy Tuscan-inspired sauce.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
  • 2 cups fresh spinach
  • Salt and black pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Season chicken pieces with salt and pepper.
  2. Heat olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  3. Add chicken and cook until browned on all sides and cooked through. Remove chicken from skillet and set aside.
  4. Add onion to the skillet and cook until softened, about 3-4 minutes.
  5. Add garlic and cook for 1 minute more until fragrant.

  9. Return chicken to the skillet and stir to coat with the sauce.
