Equipment

  • Large skillet
  • Shallow dish
  • Stove

Ingredients

  • 4 thin-cut boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • ¾ cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp mustard powder
  • 1 tsp + 1 tbsp dried parsley, divided
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • 3 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 small shallot, minced
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 ½ cups dry white wine
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1-10 oz package fresh spinach leaves

Instructions

  • Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper on both sides.
  • In a shallow dish, mix the flour with the mustard powder, 1 tsp dried parsley, and dried thyme.
  • Dredge the chicken breasts in the flour to coat lightly on both sides. Shake off any excess.
  • Melt 1 tbsp butter and 1 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and brown what chicken breasts on both sides (about 3-5 minutes on each side). Transfer the chicken to a plate and keep warm.
  • In the same skillet, melt 2 more tbsp of butter and sautee the shallots and garlic for about one minute.
  • Pour in the wine and scrape the bottom of the skillet to remove any brown bits and pieces stuck to it. Bring to a boil and reduce by half, about 3 minutes
  • Add the heavy cream, 1 tbsp dried parsley, and 1 tsp dried oregano, and simmer, stirring constantly, until reduced by half again, about 3 more minutes.
  • Mix in the spinach and cook just until wilted. Adjust the seasoning and add more salt and pepper if needed.
  • Return the chicken to the pan, cover with the sauce, and cook just until heated through.
