Main Ingredients
  • 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 onion small, chopped
  • 2-3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes packed in oil, drained and chopped
  • 1.5 cups heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Method
 

Cooking Steps
  1. Season chicken breasts or thighs with salt and pepper, then sear them in olive oil in a large skillet until golden brown; remove the chicken and set aside. In the same skillet, sauté the chopped onion and minced garlic until softened, then add the drained and chopped sun-dried tomatoes, heavy cream, chicken broth, and Italian seasoning, bringing the mixture to a gentle simmer to allow the sauce to thicken slightly.
  2. Return the seared chicken to the skillet, stirring in the grated Parmesan cheese and fresh spinach. Continue to cook until the spinach has wilted and the chicken is heated through and coated in the creamy sauce.

Notes

Serve this creamy Tuscan chicken with pasta, rice, or crusty bread to soak up all the delicious sauce.
