Ingredients
- 6 chicken breast halves
- ½ tsp salt
- Freshly cracked black pepper to taste
- 1 tbsp olive oil, divided
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- ¼ cup white wine
- ½ cup chicken broth
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- ½ cup grated parmesan cheese
- 1 cup baby spinach leaves
- ½ cup sun-dried tomatoes, sliced (not packed in oil)
Instructions
- Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper on both sides
- Heat ½ tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium high heat and brown the chicken breasts for 3-4 minutes on each side or until fully cooked. Transfer to a plate and keep warm.
- Add the remaining ½ tbsp of olive oil to the same skillet and saute the minced garlic for 30 seconds.
- Pour in ¼ cup of white wine. Deglaze the skillet, scraping the bottom to release any bits and pieces of chicken stuck to the bottom, and simmer until reduced by half.
- Mix in the chicken broth, heavy cream, Italian seasoning, cheese, baby spinach, and sun-dried tomatoes. Simmer (don’t boil) until slightly thick and the spinach has wilted.
- Transfer the chicken breasts back to the skillet, and cook until heated through, about 2 minutes. Serve over freshly cooked spaghetti or white rice.
