Ingredients
Scale
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 4 cloves fresh garlic, minced
- 2 tsp Italian seasoning
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 cups fresh spinach
- 1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and lightly spray a baking dish with nonstick spray.
- Season the chicken breasts generously with salt and pepper.
- In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Sauté the minced garlic until fragrant, about one minute.
- Sear the chicken breasts in the skillet, cooking for approximately five minutes on each side until golden brown.
- Pour in the chicken broth and heavy cream, scraping up any brown bits from the skillet’s bottom for added flavor.
- Stir in Italian seasoning and grated Parmesan cheese until everything blends smoothly.
- Fold in fresh spinach and let it wilt for around two minutes.
- Transfer the mixture to your baking dish and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
Notes
Serve over pasta, risotto, or rice to soak up the sauce. Pair with a chilled white wine for best results.
