1

Begin by heating 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

2

While the oil is heating, season the chicken with salt and pepper. Once the oil is hot, add the chicken to the skillet. Cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

3

In the same skillet, add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute or until fragrant.

4

Pour in 1 cup of heavy cream, stirring well. Allow it to simmer for about 3-4 minutes until the sauce has thickened slightly.

5

Add 3 cups of spinach to the sauce, stirring until wilted, about 2-3 minutes.

6

Return the cooked chicken to the skillet and sprinkle 1 cup of parmesan cheese over the top. Stir to coat everything in the creamy sauce. Cook for an additional 2 minutes to heat through.

Serve and enjoy your creamy chicken skillet!
