Chicken Florentine

Chicken Florentine-skinless, boneless chicken breasts in a creamy white wine and spinach sauce-is a complete, one-skillet dinner, easy enough for a weeknight, fancy enough for a date night.
Makes:4 servings

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 tsp. kosher salt, divided
  • 2 (10-oz. each) boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut in half horizontally
  • 2 Tbsp. unsalted butter
  • 1 Tbsp. olive oil
  • 1/2 cup dry white wine
  • 3/4 cup chicken stock
  • 3/4 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1/2 tsp. black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp. dried oregano
  • 1/8 tsp. dried thyme
  • 1/8 tsp. dried marjoram
  • 1 (5-oz.) pkg. fresh baby spinach (about 4 cups packed)
  • 1/4 cup roughly chopped fresh basil (from 1 [.25-oz.] pkg.)
  • 1 oz. Parmesan cheese, finely shredded (about 1/4 cup)

Directions

Prep:15 mCook:20 mReady:35 m
  1. Gather all ingredients.
  2. Stir together flour and 1/4 teaspoon of the salt in a medium bowl. Add chicken cutlets, one at a time, and toss to coat evenly with flour. Shake off excess flour, and set aside on a plate.
  3. Heat a large skillet over medium-high. Add butter and oil; cook, swirling occasionally, until butter is frothy, about 30 seconds. Add chicken in an even layer; cook, turning once halfway through, until browned and a thermometer inserted into thickest portion of breast registers 165°F, about 8 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack.
  4. Add wine to skillet; cook over high, stirring occasionally and scraping bottom to release brown bits, until reduced by half, about 1 minute. Stir in stock, cream, black pepper, garlic, oregano, thyme, marjoram, and remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt. Bring to a simmer over medium-high; cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened, about 4 minutes.
  5. Stir in spinach; cook, stirring often, until spinach is wilted, about 1 minute.
  6. Return chicken to skillet. Cook over medium-high, turning chicken once, until chicken is heated through, about 1 minute. Remove from heat; add basil and Parmesan, swirling to combine.
