Ingredients

You will need:

• 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

• 2 tablespoons olive oil

• Salt and pepper, to taste

• 4 cloves garlic, minced

• 1 cup heavy cream

• ½ cup chicken broth

• ½ cup sun-dried tomatoes, sliced

• 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

• ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese

• 2 cups fresh spinach

Instructions

1. Season the chicken
   Pat chicken dry and season both sides with salt and pepper.

2. Sear the chicken
   Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook chicken for 5–6 minutes per side until golden and cooked through. Remove and set aside.

3. Build the sauce
   In the same pan, add garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant. Pour in chicken broth, scraping up any browned bits.

4. Make it creamy
   Stir in heavy cream, sun-dried tomatoes, and Italian seasoning. Simmer for 3–4 minutes.

5. Add cheese & greens
   Stir in Parmesan cheese until melted, then add spinach and cook until just wilted.

6. Finish & serve
   Return chicken to the pan and spoon sauce over the top. Simmer for 2–3 minutes, then serve warm.
