Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 1 small yellow onion, finely chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 cup sun-dried tomatoes, oil-packed, drained and chopped
  • 2 cups fresh spinach
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Season chicken pieces with salt and pepper.
  2. Heat olive oil and butter in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat.
  3. Add chicken and cook until browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes. Remove chicken from skillet and set aside.
  4. Add chopped onion to the skillet and cook until softened, about 3-4 minutes.
  5. Stir in minced garlic and cook for 1 minute more until fragrant.
  6. Pour in chicken broth and scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet.
  7. Stir in heavy cream, Parmesan cheese, and chopped sun-dried tomatoes. Bring to a simmer.
  8. Return the cooked chicken to the skillet.
  9. Stir in fresh spinach and cook until wilted, about 2-3 minutes.
  10. Season with additional salt and pepper to taste.
  11. Serve hot.

Notes

  • For a spicier kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes with the garlic.
  • If you don’t have heavy cream, you can use half-and-half, but the sauce may be slightly thinner.
  • Fresh basil can be added at the end for extra flavor.
