🍽️ Savory Garlic Mushroom Chicken with Spinach

Instructions:

1. Prep and Sear the Chicken:

  • Pat the chicken dry and season both sides with salt and pepper.
  • Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  • Sear chicken on both sides until golden brown and cooked through (about 5–6 minutes per side). Remove and set aside.

2. SautΓ© Mushrooms and Garlic:

  • In the same pan, add butter.
  • Add sliced mushrooms and sautΓ© for 5–6 minutes until browned.
  • Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 1 more minute until fragrant.

3. Deglaze & Simmer:

  • Pour in the chicken broth to deglaze the pan, scraping up any flavorful bits.
  • Stir in the light cream and bring to a gentle simmer.

4. Add Spinach & Return Chicken:

  • Add fresh spinach and stir until wilted (1–2 minutes).
  • Return the cooked chicken breasts to the pan, spooning sauce and mushrooms over the top.
  • Simmer for 2–3 more minutes to reheat and blend flavors.

To Serve:

Serve over rice, mashed potatoes, or pasta β€” and drizzle with that garlicky mushroom cream sauce!
Optional: Top with fresh parsley or grated Parmesan.
