Ingredients

4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
1 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp dried basil
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup chicken broth

2 tbsp butter

Instructions

1. Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, oregano, and basil.

3. In the same skillet, add butter and garlic, sautéing for 1 minute.
4. Add chicken broth, heavy cream, and sun-dried tomatoes, stirring to combine.
5. Bring the mixture to a simmer, then add spinach and Parmesan, stirring until the spinach wilts and the sauce thickens.

7. Serve hot, garnished with extra Parmesan and fresh basil if desired.

Storage

Allow the dish to cool to room temperature before transferring to an airtight container. Refrigerate for up to 3 days.

Reheating

Reheat gently on the stove over low heat until warmed through, adding a splash of cream if the sauce is too thick.
