Creamy Spinach Artichoke Chicken Ingredients

There is such a great amount of flavor in this dish. Each bite is filled with a tasty little bit of this and a tasty little bit of that. The following ingredients truly make this spinach artichoke chicken one phenomenal recipe:

• chicken breasts
• seasonings: salt/pepper/garlic powder
• shallot
• marinated artichokes
• butter
• olive oil
• heavy whipping cream
• chicken broth
• freshly grated parmesan cheese
• baby spinach

How To Make This Spinach Artichoke Chicken Recipe:

1. Slice the chicken breasts in half, lengthwise. This will give you a total of four thinner chicken cutlets.
2. Season the chicken pieces with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
3. Pan fry the chicken cutlets in the butter/olive oil on both sides until golden brown. Transfer chicken to a plate.
4. Add the chopped shallot and broth to pan, and let come up to a slight boil.
5. Reduce heat to medium-low; then add in cream, parmesan cheese, artichokes, and spinach. Stir to combine.
6. Add the chicken back into the pan and cook until sauce has thickened, spinach has wilted, and chicken is cooked through completely.

Can I Use Other Chicken Parts?

I don’t recommend this as the use of chicken breasts, once halved, work far greater for a few reasons. They tend to pan fry better and cook faster as opposed to other chicken parts.

Can I Substitute The Cream For Something Else?

Again, I do not recommend this one either. The use of heavy cream is highly unmatched to milk, half and half, or coconut milk/cream. Heavy whipping cream has a great texture and richness to it that really makes the sauce creamy and flavorful. In addition, the use of alternative types of cream may cause curdling and/or a different kind of flavor.
