This recipe is one of my all-time favorites. I’m always looking for different ways to make chicken taste better. Think of a classic Italian dish, with the creamy deliciousness of French cuisine and add a kick of spice!

Ingredients:

• 2-4 chicken breasts
• 1-2 tbsp olive oil
• 2 tbsp butter
• 2-3 tbsp minced garlic
• 1 yellow onion
• 2 tbsp tomato paste
• 1/2 tsp cayenne
• 1 tsp paprika
• Salt and pepper
• 1/2 cup grated parmesan
• 1 cup heavy whipping cream
• 2 cups spinach
• 1 lemon
• 1/4 cup parsley

Directions:

1. Add olive oil to the skillet on medium heat. Add the chicken breasts to the skillet and cook each side for 10-15 minutes or until cooked through. Add salt and pepper on each side. Remove chicken from the skillet, chop up the chicken into bite-sized pieces, and set aside.
2. Add butter to the skillet on medium-low heat. Chop up the onion and add it to the skillet. Sauté the onion until it is golden brown. Add in the minced garlic and sauté for 10 more minutes.
3. Add the tomato paste, paprika, and cayenne, to the skillet and mix thoroughly.
4. Add the heavy whipping cream to the skillet. Mix thoroughly on medium heat for 10-15 minutes. Add the grated parmesan to the dish and continue to stir until it is mixed in.
5. Add the spinach and stir until the spinach is cooked and mixed into the sauce.
6. Add the chicken back into the sauce. Squeeze 1 whole lemon into the sauce and the parsley and stir thoroughly.
