Ingredients

  • 5 boneless skinless chicken thighs, about 1 lbs total
  • 2 tbsp cooking oil
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • ½ cup water
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • Pinch of red pepper flakes, optional
  • ½ cup Parmesan cheese
  • 2 cup chopped spinach
  • ½ cup sun dried tomatoes, sliced thinly
  • Rice or pasta to serve (optional)

Instructions

  • Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken thighs for about 5-7 minutes per side, or until the chicken is fully cooked. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
  • Add the minced garlic to the skillet. Cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
  • Add the heavy cream, water, Italian seasoning, red pepper flakes and Parmesan cheese. Whisk continuously over medium-low heat until the sauce starts to thicken slightly, about 5 minutes.
  • Add the chopped spinach and sundried tomatoes. Simmer until the spinach starts to wilt, about 2 minutes. Add the chicken back to the pan and toss to coat.
  • Serve over pasta or rice, if desired.
