Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400?F.
Season both sides of the chicken breast with Italian seasoning, salt and pepper.
Heat half (1 tbsp) of oil in a large skillet over high heat. Once it is hot, place the chicken breast in. Cook for 1-2 min on each side until golden brown.
Add tomatoes, garlic, spinach, and feta into the pan and drizzle the remaining olive oil over top.
Bake for 15-20 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through (165?F internal temp)
Once done, remove the chicken from the pan and stir the sauce smashing the feta and tomatoes together. Mix in the heavy cream, red pepper, and additional salt and pepper to taste, then place the chicken back into the pan and cover it with sauce.
Garnish with fresh basil if desired and serve hot with pasta, zoodles, spinach, garlic bread, or however you like it!
