Instructions

  1. Heat a large saute pan over medium-high heat.
  2. Slice chicken breast in half lengthwise, creating 4 thinner pieces of chicken. 
  3. Add chicken to a large bowl and add oil, Italian seasoning, and a couple large pinches of salt and pepper. Toss to coat chicken breasts evenly.
  4. Add chicken to the heated pan and cook each side for 3-4 minutes or until a dark golden-brown crust forms and the chicken is cooked through or very nearly cooked through – you’ll cook it more in the sauce. Cook in batches depending on the size of your pan. Set aside to a plate.
  5. Add 1 tablespoon oil to the pan and turn heat to medium-low. Add garlic, Italian seasoning, and a couple pinches of salt and pepper. Cook, stirring frequently, for 1 minute.
  6. Add white wine to the pan and deglaze the pan, scraping all the yummy bits off the bottom of the pan.
  7. Add half and half to the pan and stir to combine. Bring to a gentle simmer over medium-low heat. 
  8. Reduce heat and gently simmer over low heat for 10-12 minutes, stirring frequently.
  9. Add Parmesan and stir until melted.
  10. Add spinach, sun-dried tomatoes, and white balsamic vinegar. Stir to combine. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  11. Nestle chicken into the sauce. Cover the pan and cook on low heat for 2-4 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through. Garnish with fresh parsley. Serve with pasta if desired and enjoy!

Equipment

Notes

    • Don’t overcrowd the pan when searing chicken—work in batches if needed for a better crust.

    • Let the sauce simmer gently to thicken without curdling.

    • Slice chicken thinly to ensure quick, even cooking and better flavor absorption.
