Ingredients

4 chicken breasts
250 ml heavy cream
100 g sun-dried tomatoes
2 cups spinach
to taste garlic and parmesan

Instructions

Season the chicken and sear in oil until golden on both sides, then remove.
Cook the garlic and sun-dried tomatoes briefly in the same pan.
Pour in the cream and a little broth and simmer.

Stir in parmesan until the sauce thickens.
Return the chicken and simmer until cooked through.
Stir in the spinach until just wilted.
Serve over pasta or with bread to soak up the sauce.

💡 Chef's tip

Wilt the spinach in at the very end so it stays bright green and does not overcook into a dull mush.

Using a splash of the oil from the sun-dried tomato jar to sear the chicken infuses the whole dish with concentrated tomato flavor from the very first step.
