Creamy Garlic Chicken with Spinach: An Incredible 7-Step Recipe

Ingredients

– 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
– 2 tablespoons olive oil
– 4 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 cup heavy cream
– 2 cups fresh spinach
– ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
– 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
– Salt and pepper, to taste
– Optional: Fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

Creating Creamy Garlic Chicken with Spinach is simple if you follow these straightforward steps:

1. Prepare the Chicken: Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper on both sides.

2. Sear the Chicken: In a large skillet over medium heat, add olive oil. Once hot, add the chicken breasts and sear for 6-7 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

3. Sauté the Garlic: In the same skillet, add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Be careful not to burn it!

4. Make the Sauce: Pour in the heavy cream, stirring to combine. Add grated Parmesan cheese and Italian seasoning, and let the sauce simmer for 3-4 minutes until slightly thickened.

5. Add Spinach: Add fresh spinach to the sauce, stirring until it wilts down. This should take about 2 minutes.

6. Combine Chicken and Sauce: Return the chicken breasts to the skillet, spooning the creamy sauce over them to coat well.

7. Finish and Serve: Allow everything to heat for another minute or so, garnish with fresh parsley if desired, and serve warm.

With these simple steps, you’ll create a dish that’s both visually stunning and incredibly flavorful.
