Method

Preparation

In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat.
Season the chicken breasts generously with salt and pepper. Sauté them for about 6-7 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

Cooking

In the same skillet, add minced garlic and chopped sun-dried tomatoes. Cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Pour in the heavy cream, stirring gently and scraping up any flavorful bits stuck on the bottom.
Add grated Parmesan cheese, stirring until melted into the sauce.
Toss in the fresh spinach and let it wilt slightly.
Return the chicken to the skillet, spooning sauce over it. Simmer for 5-7 minutes until the sauce thickens.
