Creamy Chicken Florentine

• servings: 4 servings
• active time: 10 minutes
• total time: 30 minutes

Ingredients

2 large chicken breasts

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

Salt & pepper (to taste)

Flour (for dredging)

1 tablespoon olive oil

2 tablespoons butter (divided)

3 cloves garlic (minced)

1/2 cup dry white wine

1/4 cup chicken broth

1/4 teaspoon Italian seasoning

1 cup heavy/whipping cream

2 cups (loosely packed) fresh baby spinach

1/2 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese

Directions

Cut the chicken breasts in half lengthwise so you have 4 thinner pieces. Season each side of the chicken with the garlic powder and salt & pepper. Coat the chicken in flour on all sides.

Add the oil and 1 tablespoon of the butter to a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken for 4-5 minutes/side until golden. Take the pan off the heat and remove the chicken to a plate.

Return the pan to the heat and add the rest of the butter and the minced garlic. Let it cook for about 30 seconds or so.

Add the wine, chicken broth, and Italian seasoning to the skillet. Let it cook for 3-5 minutes or until it's noticeably reduced.

Add in the cream and let it bubble for 2 minutes, then stir in the spinach.

Add the chicken back to the pan and cook, over medium heat, for another 4-5 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce thickens up a bit. Sprinkle the parmesan cheese over top of the chicken and sauce prior to serving, and season it with extra salt & pepper if needed.
