Method
- Pat chicken dry with paper towels and season generously with salt and pepper on both sides.
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once shimmering, add chicken and sear for 5-7 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and set aside.
- Reduce heat to medium. Add minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant, being careful not to burn.
- Add chopped sun dried tomatoes and Italian seasoning. Cook for 1 minute.
- Pour in chicken broth, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon.
- Stir in heavy cream and bring sauce to a gentle simmer. Let it cook for 3-4 minutes to thicken slightly.
- Reduce heat to low. Stir in grated Parmesan until melted, then add spinach and cook until wilted, about 1-2 minutes.
- Return chicken and any accumulated juices to the skillet. Spoon sauce over the top and warm through for 1 minute.
- Serve immediately, garnished with extra Parmesan and fresh parsley if desired.

Notes
For a richer flavor, use the oil from the sun dried tomatoes to sauté the garlic. Don't overcrowd the pan when searing chicken to ensure a good crust forms. This recipe is easily adaptable - swap chicken for tofu or tempeh for a vegan version, and serve over pasta, rice, or zucchini noodles.
