Equipment

  • Large skillet
  • Tongs (for turning the chicken)
  • Wooden spoon for stirring
  • Measuring spoons
  • Knife and Cutting Board

Ingredients
  

  • 1 tablespoon oil olive or vegetable oil
  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • Salt to taste
  • Pepper to taste
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes halved
  • 2 cups spinach
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • ½ cup grated parmesan cheese
  • Lemon wedges for serving

Instructions
 

Cook the Chicken:

  • In a large skillet over medium heat, heat the oil.
  • Add the chicken breasts, season with salt, pepper, and oregano.
  • Cook for about 8 minutes per side, or until the chicken is golden and no longer pink inside.
    The large black skillet on the white marble cooktop shows the golden-brown chicken breasts being carefully lifted out and set aside on a plate nearby, leaving flavorful browned bits and oil in the skillet as a base for the next step.
  • Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

Sauté the Garlic and Tomatoes:

  • In the same skillet over medium heat, melt the butter.
  • Stir in the minced garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
  • Add the cherry tomatoes, season with salt and pepper, and cook until the tomatoes begin to burst.
  • Add the spinach and cook until it begins to wilt.
    The black skillet on the white marble cooktop now contains fresh spinach leaves, layered over the softened garlic and tomatoes. The spinach begins to wilt, mixing with the tomatoes and creating a colorful, flavorful base.

Make the Creamy Sauce:

  • Stir in the heavy cream and parmesan cheese, bringing the mixture to a simmer.
  • Reduce the heat to low and let the sauce simmer for about 3 minutes until it slightly thickens.
    Heavy cream and grated parmesan are poured into the black skillet on the white marble cooktop, gently stirred into the spinach and tomato mixture. The sauce simmers, thickening to a creamy, smooth consistency.

Combine and Serve:

  • Return the chicken to the skillet, spooning the sauce over it, and cook until heated through, about 5 to 7 minutes.
