Quick Chicken "Florentine"
Recipe Type: Main Course
Cuisine: Italian
Ingredients
6 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper, to taste
¼ cup all-purpose flour
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided
3 cloves garlic, minced
¼ cup diced shallots
1 lb. baby spinach
1 cup white wine
1 cup heavy cream
¼ cup sour cream
2 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan
½ pint of cherry tomatoes, halved
2 tablespoons chopped fresh flat leaf parsley
Instructions
Season chicken with salt and pepper, to taste. Working one at a time, dredge chicken in flour.
Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add chicken and cook, flipping once, until cooked through, about 5-6 minutes on each side. Set aside and keep warm.
Melt remaining 4 tablespoons butter in the skillet. Add garlic and shallots, and cook, stirring frequently, until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Stir in spinach until it begins to wilt, about 2 minutes. Stir in wine and cook, stirring occasionally, until reduced by half, about 5 minutes.
Gradually whisk in heavy cream, sour cream and Parmesan until slightly thickened, about 3-4 minutes; season with salt and pepper, to taste.
Serve chicken immediately topped with spinach mixture, garnished with tomato and parsley.
