A creamy and savory chicken dish featuring tender chicken breasts, fresh spinach, and a rich Parmesan sauce, perfect for weeknight meals or special gatherings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 chicken breasts
  • 2 cups fresh spinach
  • 1 cup heavy cream

  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Olive oil
  • Pasta or baked potato for serving

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.

  3. In the same skillet, add minced garlic. Sauté until it becomes fragrant.

Notes

For a lighter sauce, substitute heavy cream with half-and-half or use Greek yogurt. You can also add sun-dried tomatoes or mushrooms for variation.
