  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1.5 lbs or 680 g)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil (15 ml)
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup (240 ml) heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup (120 ml) chicken broth

  • 2 cups (60 g) fresh spinach

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
  2. Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper, then add to the skillet and cook until browned, about 6-7 minutes on each side. Remove and set aside.
  3. In the same skillet, add minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.

  8. Serve warm over pasta or rice and enjoy!

Notes

  • For extra flavor, marinate the chicken in Italian dressing for an hour before cooking.
