Looking for a new delicious dinner? I recently made this Tomato and Spinach Chicken for my family and we all loved it so much. It’s all cooked on the stove top, which is one of my favourite ways to cook dinners. And it goes so great with Roasted Potatoes and some steamed vegetables for a perfect dinner.

• Serving – This chicken dinner will make four servings. You can easily adjust the serving size in the recipe card at the end of the post.

Ingredients

• Chicken – I used boneless and skinless chicken breast for this dish.
• Flour – A small amount of flour is used to coat the chicken. This also helps thicken up the sauce as it simmers down.
• Seasoning – The chicken is seasoned with salt and pepper.
• Olive oil – I used olive oil to cook the chicken and the cherry tomatoes.
• Cherry tomatoes – I used cherry tomatoes for this dish.
• Garlic – Minced garlic is added to the cherry tomatoes for extra flavour.
• Cream – Heavy cream is used as a based for the fragrant sauce.
• Spinach – Fresh spinach is added to this creamy chicken dish for a great flavour.
• Parmesan cheese – Fresh grated parmesan chicken is added to the dish just as it finished cooking.
• Parsley – Minced parsley adds a fresh punch to the finished dish.

NOTE, The full recipe and ingredient list can be found in the recipe card at the end of the post.

Instructions

1. Flatten chicken – Place the chicken on a clean surface and cover with a sheet of parchment paper. Using a kitchen mallot, lightly flatten the chicken. Using a sharp knife, cut open each chicken breast in half through middle.
2. Coat chicken – In a large bowl, toss the flour with the salt and pepper. Lightly dredge the chicken in the flour and set aside.
3. Cook chicken – Heat two tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet set over high heat. Add the chicken and cook for about 4 minutes. Flip the chicken and cook for a further 4 minutes. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
4. Cook cherry tomatoes – Reduce the skillet to medium heat and add remaining two tablespoons of olive oil. Add the cherry tomatoes and give a good toss. Cook down for about 5 minutes until the tomatoes are soft and charred. Add the garlic as stir well for about one minute.
5. Make sauce – Add the heavy cream to the tomatoes, stir and bring to a simmer. Add the spinach and stir until it has wilted, about one more minute. Add the chicken, reduce heat to low and cook for a further 10 minutes.
6. Add parmesan cheese and parsley – Remove the lid from the skillet and evenly sprinkle over the parmesan cheese and fresh parsley. Allow the parmesan cheese to melt for about one to two minutes. Serve the chicken topped with the creamy tomato and spinach sauce.

Recipe Tips

• Flatten chicken evenly – Make sure to flatten the chicken evenly to ensure even cooking.
• Cooking the tomatoes – Make sure to toss the tomatoes while they are cooking. As they are cooking down, lightly flatten them down to ensure they fully cook.

Substitutions

• Chicken breast – Alternatively, you can use chicken tenders, chicken fillets or even boneless skinless chicken thighs.
• Cherry tomatoes – If you don’t have cherry tomatoes, you can use roughly diced large tomatoes.
• Fresh parsley – For a slightly different flavour, you could easily use fresh basil.

Serving

• Salads – A fresh salad to go on the side of this would work really well. Why not take a look at the Mediterranean Tossed Salad or the Classic Caprice Salad.
• Breads – Of course you can serve with pasta! Garlic Knots are one of our family favourites and even the Rustic Loaf would be great.
• Potato dishes –  I highly recommend the Potato and Leek Cakes or the Roasted Rosemary Potatoes.  Both equally delicious with this sauce.
