Method
 

Cooking
  1. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
  2. Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper, then add to the skillet. Cook until browned and cooked through, about 6-7 minutes per side. Remove chicken and set aside.
  3. In the same skillet, add minced garlic and cherry tomatoes, sautéing until tomatoes are soft.
  4. Add heavy cream, spinach, and Italian seasoning. Stir until spinach wilts and the sauce thickens slightly.
  5. Return the chicken to the skillet, coating it with the creamy sauce.
  6. Serve hot, topped with grated Parmesan cheese.

Notes

For serving, consider pairing with rice, pasta, or a side salad. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3-4 days or freeze for up to 3 months. Reheat gently to prevent cream separation.
