Recipe Description

Garlic Tuscan Chicken is a creamy, flavorful chicken dish made with a rich sauce of garlic, sun-dried tomatoes, and spinach. This dish combines the savory taste of garlic with the creaminess of the sauce, making it the perfect meal to enjoy on a busy weeknight or when hosting guests. Served with a side of pasta or vegetables, this dish is both satisfying and delicious!

Ingredients

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 2 cups fresh spinach
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh basil for garnish (optional)

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Chicken

  • Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and dried Italian seasoning.
  • Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  • Cook the chicken breasts for 6-7 minutes per side or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove chicken from the skillet and set aside.

Step 2: Make the Sauce

  • In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
  • Add the chopped sun-dried tomatoes and cook for another 2 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a simmer. Let it reduce by half, about 4-5 minutes.
  • Stir in the heavy cream, spinach, and Parmesan cheese. Cook until the spinach wilts and the sauce thickens slightly, about 3-4 minutes.

Step 3: Combine the Chicken with the Sauce

  • Return the cooked chicken breasts to the skillet, coating them with the creamy sauce.
  • Simmer for an additional 5 minutes, allowing the chicken to absorb the flavors of the sauce.

Step 4: Serve

  • Serve the Garlic Tuscan Chicken with pasta, rice, or steamed vegetables.
  • Garnish with fresh basil leaves and additional Parmesan cheese if desired.
