Skillet Chicken with Creamy Spinach

Ingredient List

Ingredients are for 2 servings:

  • 400g skinless chicken breast (200g each piece)

  • 2 teaspoon italian seasoning or any herb-based seasoning of your choice.

  • 1 tablespoon butter

  • Salt and ground pepper

Creamy Spinach

  • 1/2 (7g) tablespoon butter

  • 50g onions, finely chopped

  • 100g fresh spinach, trimmed

  • 28g cream cheese

  • 2 tablespoon whipping cream

  • 2 (28) tablespoon shredded Parmesan cheese

  • dash of garlic powder


Preparation Steps

Skillet Chicken Breast

  • To speed up the cooking process, cut the chicken breasts lengthwise into thin cutlets.

  • Season both sides of the chicken with salt, ground black pepper, and seasoning of choice.

  • Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add butter or oil to the skillet. When hot, carefully place the chicken breasts in the skillet and cook for about 4 minutes on each side. The chicken is ready to serve when it's no longer pink.


Creamy Spinach

  • Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and sauté until tender, about 3 minutes.


  • Add the spinach to the skillet. As it cooks down, add the cream cheese, heavy cream, and garlic powder. Stir until the cream cheese has melted and the mixture is smooth and creamy.


  • Remove from heat and sprinkle with freshly grated Parmesan just before serving.
