Instructions
In a small bowl, mix together the Italian seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.
Using a sharp knife, fillet each chicken breast into two thinner cutlets. Season the chicken on both sides with the seasoning mixture.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the chicken and cook for about 4 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add butter and minced garlic. Lower the heat to medium-low and sauté the garlic for 1 minute, until fragrant.
Add the chicken broth, Dijon mustard, and Worcestershire sauce to the skillet. Stir to combine, scraping up any browned bits from the pan.
Stir in the heavy cream and grated parmesan cheese. Let the sauce simmer for 5 minutes, allowing it to thicken. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
Add the spinach to the skillet, stirring to incorporate until the spinach wilts.
Return the cooked chicken to the skillet and spoon the sauce over the top. Let the chicken heat through, about 2 minutes.
Serve hot with your favorite side dish.
Notes
A creamy and indulgent dish that's perfect for a cozy dinner night. The Dijon mustard adds a zesty touch, while the spinach gives it a fresh twist.
