Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1.5 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
  • 1 1/4 cups heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 cups fresh spinach
  • Red pepper flakes to taste (optional)

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  2. Add chicken pieces, season with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning. Cook until browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes.
  3. Add minced garlic and chopped sun-dried tomatoes to the skillet. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
  4. Pour in heavy cream and bring to a simmer. Stir in Parmesan cheese until melted and the sauce begins to thicken.
  5. Add fresh spinach and cook until wilted, about 1-2 minutes.
  6. Season with red pepper flakes if desired.
  7. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, you can add a splash of white wine after cooking the garlic and sun-dried tomatoes, letting it reduce before adding the cream.
  • If you don’t have heavy cream, half-and-half can be used, but the sauce may be slightly thinner.
  • Feel free to add other vegetables like mushrooms or bell peppers along with the spinach.
