Creamy Tuscan Chicken

✓ USDA-verified nutrition data

Ingredients

• 1.5 lb Chicken breast
• 1 cup Heavy cream
• 1/2 cup Sun-dried tomatoes
• 3 cups Baby spinach
• 1/2 cup Parmesan
• 4 cloves Garlic
• 1 tsp Italian seasoning

Steps

1. Pat the chicken dry and season with salt, pepper, and the Italian seasoning — dry chicken browns; wet chicken steams.
2. Sear in a large skillet over medium-high heat, 5 to 6 minutes per side, until golden and the juices run clear; set aside on a plate.
3. Lower the heat to medium and soften the minced garlic and sun-dried tomatoes for 1 minute, stirring constantly so the garlic does not burn.
4. Pour in the cream, scraping up the browned bits, and bring to a gentle simmer — never a hard boil, which can split the cream.
5. Whisk in the parmesan a handful at a time until the sauce thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon.
6. Fold in the spinach and stir just until wilted, about 1 minute.
7. Return the chicken and any collected juices to the pan; simmer 5 minutes to warm through.
8. Spoon the sauce over the chicken and serve right away.
