  • Author: Chef Ethan Sam
  • Total Time: 35 minutes

Ingredients

– 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
– 2 cups fresh spinach, chopped
– 1 cup heavy cream
– 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
– 2 tablespoons olive oil
– 2 cloves garlic, minced
– Salt and pepper, to taste
– 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
– Juice of 1 lemon


Instructions

Creating the Easy Chicken Florentine Recipe with Creamy Spinach is a breeze when you follow these simple steps:

1. Prepare the Chicken: Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning on both sides.
2. Cook the Chicken: In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until cooked through and golden brown. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
3. Sauté the Garlic: In the same skillet, add minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Be careful not to burn it.
4. Make the Creamy Sauce: Pour in the heavy cream and add the grated Parmesan cheese. Stir continuously until the cheese melts and the sauce thickens, about 3-5 minutes. Add the chopped spinach and lemon juice, cooking until the spinach wilts.
5. Combine and Serve: Return the chicken to the skillet, spooning the creamy spinach sauce over the top. Let it simmer for an additional 2-3 minutes, then serve hot.

These straightforward steps will guide you through preparing this incredible dish with ease.
