Instructions
Creating Creamy Keto Tuscan Chicken with Spinach and Sun-Dried Tomatoes is straightforward. Follow these easy steps:
1. Prepare the Chicken: Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper on both sides.
2. Heat the Oil: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.
3. Cook the Chicken: Add the chicken breasts to the skillet and cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
4. Sauté Garlic: In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
5. Add Cream: Pour in the heavy cream, stirring to combine with the garlic.
6. Incorporate Spinach and Tomatoes: Add the fresh spinach and chopped sun-dried tomatoes to the cream. Cook until the spinach wilts, about 2-3 minutes.
7. Season the Sauce: Stir in the Italian seasoning and grated Parmesan cheese, mixing until well combined.
8. Return Chicken: Add the chicken breasts back to the skillet, coating them in the creamy sauce. Allow to simmer for an additional 3-5 minutes to heat through.
9. Garnish: Remove from heat and garnish with fresh basil, if desired.
10. Serve: Plate the chicken with a generous amount of the creamy sauce drizzled over the top.
