Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (1.5 lbs)
  • 4 cloves fresh garlic, minced
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tsp Italian seasoning
  • 2 cups fresh spinach
  • 1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
  • 1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
  • 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes (optional)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 tbsp olive oil

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add olive oil. Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper, then sear for about 5 minutes per side until golden brown. Remove and set aside.
  3. In the same skillet, sauté minced garlic until fragrant (about 1 minute). Add heavy cream and chicken broth, scraping brown bits from the pan.
  4. Stir in Parmesan cheese until melted. Mix in Italian seasoning, sun-dried tomatoes, and spinach; cook for 3-4 minutes until spinach wilts.
  5. Return chicken to skillet, spooning sauce over it. Simmer for an additional 10-15 minutes until chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
  6. Serve immediately with pasta or crusty bread.
