If you are looking for a dinner that feels like a five-star Italian meal but takes less than 30 minutes to make, you have found it. This One-Pan Creamy Tuscan Garlic Chicken is the ultimate crowd-pleaser. We are talking about succulent, golden-brown chicken nestled in a silky garlic cream sauce, punctuated by the tart sweetness of sundried tomatoes and fresh spinach. It is the kind of meal that makes everyone ask for the recipe before they even finish their first plate.

Ingredients

• 2 large boneless skinless chicken breasts (halved lengthwise)
• 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
• 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1/2 cup sundried tomatoes, chopped
• 1.5 cups heavy cream
• 1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
• 2 cups fresh baby spinach
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

1. Season the chicken halves with salt, pepper, Italian seasoning, and smoked paprika.
2. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken for 5-7 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove chicken from the pan and set aside.
3. In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sundried tomatoes. Sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
4. Reduce heat to medium-low and pour in the heavy cream. Bring to a gentle simmer.
5. Stir in the Parmesan cheese until melted and the sauce begins to thicken.
6. Add the spinach and stir until it begins to wilt into the sauce.
7. Add the chicken back into the skillet, spooning the sauce over the top. Let it simmer for another 2 minutes to heat through.
8. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve over pasta, rice, or with a side of crusty bread.
