- 1.5 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 small yellow onion, chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes packed in oil, drained and chopped
- 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 cups fresh spinach
- Season the chicken pieces with salt and pepper.
- Heat the olive oil in a large, deep skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat.
- Add the chicken and cook until browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the chicken and set it aside.
- Add the chopped onion to the skillet and cook until softened, about 3 minutes.
- Add the minced garlic and chopped sun-dried tomatoes. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
- Stir in the Italian seasoning.
- Pour in the chicken broth, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet. Bring the liquid to a simmer.
- Return the chicken to the skillet. Reduce the heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer for 8 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.
- Stir in the heavy cream and Parmesan cheese until the sauce is smooth and creamy.
- Stir in the fresh spinach until it wilts, about 1-2 minutes.
- Serve immediately.
Notes
- You can serve this dish over pasta, rice, or with crusty bread to soak up the sauce.
- If you prefer a thicker sauce, let it simmer uncovered for a few extra minutes before adding the cream.
