Instructions
Creating the Healthy Chicken Pomodoro Skillet is simple if you follow these clear steps:
1. Prepare the Chicken: Start by cutting the chicken breasts into bite-sized cubes. Season with salt, pepper, and half of the Italian seasoning.
2. Heat the Skillet: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat until shimmering.
3. Cook the Chicken: Add the seasoned chicken to the skillet. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and lightly browned.
4. Add the Tomatoes: Stir in the halved cherry tomatoes and the remaining Italian seasoning. Allow them to cook for about 3-4 minutes until the tomatoes start to soften.
5. Incorporate Spinach: Add the fresh spinach leaves to the skillet. Stir gently until the spinach wilts down, which should take about 2-3 minutes.
6. Adjust Seasoning: Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.
7. Serve and Garnish: Once everything is well combined and heated through, transfer the skillet to the table. Garnish with fresh basil if desired.
These simple steps will help you create an incredible dish that’s not only delicious but also healthy.
