easy and delicious weeknight chicken dinner idea
Servings 2 people

Ingredients
  

  • 2 large boneless and skinless chicken breasts , halved horizontally to make 4 fillets
  • 1/2 cup sun dried tomatoes
  • 1/2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1/2 cup
    dry white wine
  • 2-3 cups fresh spinach
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • salt & pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Generously salt and pepper your chicken on both sides.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Fry the chicken until golden on each side, cooked through and no longer pink (about 5-6 minutes each side, depending on the thickness of your chicken). Transfer onto a warm plate.
  • Without cleaning out the pan, sauté the garlic until fragrant (about 1 minute). Then add the sun dried tomatoes.
  • Add wine, and cook until the wine has almost evaporated.
  • Reduce heat to low-medium heat, add the cream and bring to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally.
  • Add spinach to the pan.
  • Season with salt and pepper to your taste. Add the chicken back into the pan. Cook for a few more minutes.
