Instructions

Prepare the seasoning mix:
In a small bowl, combine Italian seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.

Prepare the chicken:
Carefully fillet each chicken breast into two thinner cutlets. Season both sides of the chicken with the seasoning mix.

Cook the chicken:
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add olive oil. Once hot, add the chicken cutlets and cook for about 4 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through. Remove chicken from the skillet and cover to keep warm.

Make the sauce:
In the same skillet, add butter and minced garlic. Turn the heat down to medium-low and sauté for 1 minute, until fragrant.

Add liquids and seasonings:
Pour in the chicken broth, Dijon mustard, and Worcestershire sauce. Stir well and scrape up any brown bits stuck to the bottom of the pan.

Add cream and cheese:
Stir in the heavy cream and parmesan cheese. Let the sauce simmer for about 5 minutes, then taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.

Add spinach:
Stir in the fresh spinach, allowing it to wilt in the sauce.

Finish the dish:
Return the cooked chicken to the skillet, spooning the Dijon sauce over the top. Let it heat through for 2-3 minutes. Serve immediately with your favorite side dish and enjoy!

Notes

Make it gluten-free: Ensure the Worcestershire sauce is gluten-free if needed.

Add some heat: For a spicy twist, add red pepper flakes to the sauce.

Serve with sides: Great with rice, mashed potatoes, or roasted vegetables.
