Creamy Tuscan Chicken - An easy and healthy weeknight staple dinner, you can’t believe it’s not from Olive Garden.
Servings: 6 | Prep Time: 15 MIN | Cook Time: 30 MIN
Ingredients
4 large chicken breasts
1 Tbsp avocado oil
1 Tbsp ghee (or butter, or avo oil)
1/2 medium onion
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 13.5 oz can coconut cream (or full-fat, unsweetened)
2 packed cups fresh spinach
1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes
1 14 oz can quartered artichoke hearts
fresh basil, garnish
Serve with roasted potatoes, cauliflower rice, zucchini noodles, or spaghetti squash
Directions
Liberally season both sides of each chicken breast with salt.
Heat avocado oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once oil is hot and shimmering, place chicken breasts in a skillet. Cook 5 to 6 minutes per side, depending on thickness of chicken breast. Once chicken is browned and firm on both sides, transfer to a plate and set aside.
Clean any browned or burnt residue from the skillet, then return to heat. Lower heat to medium and add ghee (or butter or avocado oil). When the ghee is melted, add minced onion (the other half from the omelet recipe!) and garlic. Cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant – approximately 30 to 60 seconds.
Pour in coconut cream and stir well. Add spinach, sun-dried tomatoes, and artichoke hearts. Stir well, then allow sauce to simmer until well combined and slightly thickened, approximately 5 minutes.
Return chicken to skillet and turn 2 to 3 times, to coat in sauce. Serve warm with roasted potatoes, cauliflower rice, zucchini noodles, or spaghetti squash.
