Ingredients

• 4 chicken breasts, halved crosswise
• 2 Tbsp olive oil
• 1 (10 oz) package of mushrooms
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 Tbsp butter
• 1 Tbsp rice or wheat flour
• 1/2 cup chicken broth
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1/2 Tsp salt
• 1 cup spinach

Directions

• In a large skillet, add olive oil and heat it over medium high heat. When the pan is hot, add chicken and cook for about 4 minutes on each side until browned. Remove it onto a plate and add the sliced mushrooms in. Add in salt. In about 5 more minutes, your mushrooms should look nice and moist, and dark. Once cooked, remove them from the pan.
• To make the sauce, add butter to the pan, allow it to melt and then cook garlic in it until slightly browned – only for a couple of minutes. Add 1 tablespoon flour (omit flour if you like your sauce to be a little more runny). Slowly add chicken broth, half-and-half and Parmesan cheese and allow them to blend for 2-3 minutes.
• Add spinach to the mixture and allow it to wilt. I added 1 cup of spinach, but you can certainly add more or less depending on your preference. Add the chicken and mushrooms back into the pan and mix in well.
