Ingredients
For chicken:
- 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts cut in half lengthwise to create cutlets
- 2 teaspoons paprika
- 1 teaspoon of onion salt
- 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
For sauce:
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1/2 cup chopped sundried tomatoes
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 3 cups spinach leaves roughly chopped
- 1 14 ounce can chopped artichoke hearts, drained
- 1-1/2 cups heavy cream
- 1/2 cup fresh grated parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1/4 cup minced fresh basil
Instructions
- Clean the chicken breasts and cut them in half horizontally to make cutlets.
- Mix your seasonings in a small bowl and sprinkle evenly over both sides of your chicken cutlets.
- Add olive oil to a large high-sided 12-inch skillet and set over medium heat.
- Brown each cutlet for about 5 minutes per side.
- Remove the chicken from the skillet and let it sit on a plate while you prepare the sauce. It's ok if your chicken is not fully cooked it will go back into the skillet at the end of cooking.
- In the same skillet you browned the chicken add your butter.
- Once the butter is melted add your sundried tomatoes and garlic and saute for 30 seconds until the garlic is fragrant.
- Add in your spinach and artichoke and saute for a few minutes just to help soften the spinach.
- Pour in the heavy cream, Parmesan cheese, and Dijon mustard. Stir to combine and lower the heat to medium-low.
- Nestle your chicken back into the skillet and simmer gently for 5-10 minutes or until your chicken is fully cooked. Do not let your sauce boil you just want a gentle simmer.
- Before serving, taste and add salt if needed and sprinkle with chopped basil.
- Serve over rice or pasta or alongside roasted vegetables.
