CHICKEN & SPINACH SKILLET PASTA WITH LEMON & PARMESAN ...



Chicken & Spinach Skillet Pasta with Lemon & Parmesan ... image

This one-pan pasta that combines lean chicken breast and sautéed spinach for a one-bowl meal is garlicky, lemony and best served with a little Parm on top. I call it "Mom's Skillet Pasta" and she called it "Devon's Favorite Pasta." Either way it's a quick and easy weeknight dinner we created together and scribbled on a little recipe card more than a decade ago, and it remains in my weekly dinner rotation to this day. It's a simple dinner the whole family will love.

Categories     Chicken Breast Recipes

Total Time 35 minutes

Prep Time 30 minutes

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 pound chicken cutlets
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
Unbleached all-purpose flour, for dredging
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon minced garlic (from 3 cloves)
1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
1 1/4 cups low-sodium chicken broth
4 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
10 ounces baby spinach (7 cups)
1 package (9 ounces) frozen artichoke hearts, thawed, quartered if whole
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 ounce Parmigiano-Reggiano, finely grated (1/2 cup packed)
Steamed rice, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high. Season chicken with salt and pepper; dredge in flour, shaking off any excess. Add butter and 1 tablespoon oil to skillet. When butter melts, add chicken in a single layer and cook, flipping once, until golden brown in places but not cooked through, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
  • Add remaining 1 tablespoon oil, garlic, and thyme to skillet; cook until fragrant, 10 seconds. Stir in broth and cream cheese; cook until mixture boils and cheese melts. Add spinach and cook, stirring, until wilted, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in artichokes; cook 1 minute more. Return chicken and accumulated juices to skillet. Simmer, shaking pan occasionally, until sauce is reduced and thickened slightly and chicken is just cooked through, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in lemon juice and cheese. Serve over rice.
