I am all about the quick and easy dinner options, and you can almost never go wrong with chicken dishes! This chicken is covered in an ultra creamy spinach and artichoke sauce that takes just minutes to put together. I sear my chicken breasts to golden brown with a little olive oil. You can use boneless chicken thighs if you prefer, just be sure to add a few extra minutes to the cooking time. After the chicken is cooked through, I add some garlic, a little flour to thicken the sauce, chicken stock and cream.
The main flavors in the sauce are the spinach and artichoke hearts. I use jarred marinated artichoke hearts in this dish, I love that they’re already seasoned which saves me some time when I’m trying to get dinner on the table in a hurry. A few handfuls of fresh spinach leaves go in at the end, along with a sprinkling of parsley. I often put up a pot of pasta to boil at the same time that I start cooking my chicken. That way, my pasta ends up done at the same time as my main course and I can simply plate and serve. This recipe is also great over rice; or sometimes I just serve it with a loaf of bread to sop up the incredible sauce! Add a salad and you’ve got a dinner that the whole family will enjoy.
This dish tastes like something you’d order at a fancy Italian restaurant; no one has to know how simple it actually is to make! In fact, you could even serve this chicken at a dinner party and get rave reviews. Regardless of how you serve it, creamy spinach and artichoke chicken is sure to be as big of a hit at your house as it is in mine.
