Ingredients

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
2 cups fresh spinach, chopped
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup heavy cream
½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 tablespoon olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste
1 cup chicken broth

Instructions

Cook the Chicken:
Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and cook the chicken for 5-7 minutes on each side, until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken and set aside.
Make the Sauce:
In the same skillet, add minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Add chicken broth, heavy cream, and Parmesan cheese. Stir and let simmer for 3-5 minutes until the sauce thickens.
Add the Spinach:
Stir in the spinach and cook for another 2-3 minutes until the spinach wilts and the sauce is creamy.
Combine and Serve:
Return the chicken to the skillet, spooning the sauce over the chicken. Let everything simmer for a few minutes. Serve hot, garnished with extra Parmesan if desired.
