Steps

Read instructions and get ready to cook

1
Prepare Ingredients

Dice the onion and mince the garlic. Rinse and pat dry the spinach leaves.

2
Sear Chicken

Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken and sear until golden, about 3-4 minutes each side. Remove and set aside.

3
Cook Onion and Garlic

In the same skillet, reduce heat to medium. Add diced onion and minced garlic, sauté until onion is translucent.

4
Create Cream Sauce

Add chicken broth to deglaze the pan, scraping any browned bits. Stir in heavy cream and bring to a simmer.

5
Add Chicken and Spinach

Return the chicken to the skillet. Add spinach and cover for 2 minutes to allow it to wilt. Stir gently to combine.

6
Final Seasoning

Stir in grated Parmesan cheese, season with remaining salt and pepper. Simmer for another 5 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce has thickened.

7
Serve

Spoon the creamy spinach sauce over the chicken. Serve hot.
