Ingredients

  • 1.5 lbs. of boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 4 cloves of garlic minced
  • 1 medium onion diced
  • 1/3 cup white wine
  • 1/3 cup sun-dried tomatoes in oil julienned or thinly sliced
  • 1 cup heavy cream or coconut cream for dairy-free
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 3 cups baby spinach
  • 1/2 cup parmesan cheese freshly grated
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Season the chicken with salt, pepper, and smoked paprika.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large non-stick skillet or cast iron pan over medium-high heat.  Add the chicken to the pan and cook until golden on both sides - about 4-5 minutes on each side.  Remove the chicken from the skillet and set it aside.
  • Add 1 tablespoon olive oil to the pan and add the minced garlic and chopped onions.    Cook for several minutes until soft.  Add the sun-dried tomatoes, white wine, cream, and chicken broth and stir well to combine.
  • Reduce the heat and simmer until the sauce reduces slightly.  Add the parmesan cheese and stir to incorporate.
  • Add the chicken back into the skillet and simmer covered, over low heat until it is fully cooked through in the middle, another 3-5 minutes.  Gently stir in the spinach and allow it to wilt.  Check for seasoning and adjust with extra salt and pepper as needed.
