Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup heavy cream Can be substituted with coconut cream for a lighter option.
  • ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese Can be replaced with sharp Cheddar for a twist.
  • 1 cup fresh spinach, chopped
  • ½ cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped Ensure they are packed in oil.
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh basil for garnish (optional)

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Season both sides of the chicken breasts with salt and pepper.
Cooking
  1. In a large skillet over medium heat, add the olive oil. Once heated, add the chicken breasts and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
  2. In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds. Pour in the heavy cream, stirring to combine, then add the Parmesan cheese and allow it to melt into the cream.
  3. Stir in the spinach and sun-dried tomatoes, letting them simmer for 2-3 minutes until the spinach wilts.
  4. Place the seared chicken back into the skillet and spoon the creamy sauce over the top. Let it simmer for another 2-3 minutes so all flavors meld beautifully.
  5. Garnish with fresh basil and enjoy your Creamy Keto Tuscan Chicken Breast warm!

Notes

If storing leftovers, keep in an airtight container for up to 3 days, or freeze for up to 2 months. Reheat gently on the stovetop with a splash of cream or milk to restore consistency.
