Ingredients

Scale

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

  • Salt & pepper, to taste

  • 1 tbsp olive oil

  • 3 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 cup heavy cream

  • ½ cup chicken broth

  • ½ cup grated parmesan cheese

  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning

  • ½ tsp crushed red pepper flakes (optional)

  • ¾ cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped

  • 2 cups fresh spinach

  • Fresh basil for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).

  2. Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper.

  3. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Sear chicken on both sides until golden (about 3 minutes per side). Transfer to a baking dish.

  4. In the same skillet, sauté garlic until fragrant. Stir in heavy cream, chicken broth, parmesan, and Italian seasoning. Simmer for 3–4 minutes.

  5. Add sun-dried tomatoes and spinach. Stir until spinach wilts.

  6. Pour sauce over chicken in the baking dish.

  7. Bake for 20–25 minutes until chicken is fully cooked.

  8. Garnish with basil and serve hot.

Notes

  • For extra richness, add a dollop of cream cheese to the sauce.

  • Can be made ahead and refrigerated for up to 2 days before baking.

  • Use thighs instead of breasts for more juiciness, if preferred.
