Ingredients

1 1/2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breast or thighs

1 teaspoon sea salt

1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper

2 tablespoons avocado oil

8 ounces mushrooms (sliced)

1 shallot (diced, or 2 tablespoons diced onion)

8 ounces frozen spinach (thawed and drained)

1 teaspoon minced garlic

1/4 cup white wine or chicken broth

1 1/2 cups heavy cream

1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese

Directions

If using chicken breasts (or large thighs), place the chicken in a plastic zip-top bag and pound to an even thickness.

Season with salt and pepper.

Heat the oil over medium-high heat.

Add the chicken to the pan and cook for 7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature is 155° F.

Remove the chicken from the pan and tent with foil.

Add mushrooms and shallots and cook for 7 minutes.

Add the spinach and garlic and cook for about 1 more minute.

Add the broth or wine to the pan and scrape up any brown bits.

Reduce heat to medium-low and add the heavy cream and parmesan cheese.

Cook for 3 to 5 minutes until the cheese melts.

Return the chicken to the pan and toss to coat. Cook for another two minutes until the chicken reaches 165° F.
