Servings: 6
Ingredients
- 6 chicken breast halves
- 1 tbsp olive oil divided
- 3 garlic cloves minced
- ¼ cup white wine
- ½ cup chicken broth
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- ½ cup grated parmesan cheese
- 1 cup baby spinach leaves
- ½ cup sun-dried tomatoes sliced (not packed in oil)
Instructions
- Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper and brown them in a large skillet with ½ tbsp olive oil, over medium high heat for 3-4 minutes on each side or until fully cooked.
- After browning the seasoned chicken breasts and transferring them to a plate, add ½ tbsp of olive oil to the same skillet and saute the minced garlic for 30 seconds.
- Pour in the white wine to deglaze the skillet, scraping the bottom to release anything stuck to it, and simmer until reduced by half.
- Add the chicken broth, heavy cream, Italian seasoning, parmesan cheese, spinach, and sun-dried tomatoes. Simmer until slightly thick and the spinach has wilted.
- Return the chicken breasts to the skillet and cook until heated through. Serve over freshly cooked spaghetti or white rice.
Notes
- Don’t forget to season the chicken breasts on both sides with salt and pepper.
- Do not use oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes, they will make the sauce greasy.
- To properly brown the chicken breasts, make sure the skillet and oil are hot before placing the breasts on it, and don’t move them for 3 mins.
