Instructions

Season and sear the chicken.

Season chicken with salt, pepper, garlic powder and dried oregano. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

Sear chicken for 68 minutes per side, depending on thickness, until deeply golden and cooked through to 165°F.

Remove and set aside.

In the same pan, reduce heat to medium. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.

Add cherry tomatoes.

Cook 34 minutes, until softened and lightly blistered.

Deglaze and make the sauce.

Pour in the chicken broth, stirring to deglaze the pan. Simmer for 12 minutes.

Stir in the cooking cream and Parmesan. Simmer gently until the sauce thickens slightly (2-3 minutes).

Stir in spinach and cook just until wilted.

Return chicken to the skillet and spoon sauce over it. Simmer for another 3-4 minutes to warm through.

Garnish with fresh basil if desired. Serve with pasta, mashed potatoes, or crusty bread.
