Creamy Tuscan Chicken (so easy!)

I can’t get enough of this chicken recipe. It is so easy to make, but incredibly tasty. Tender, juicy chicken breasts are simmered in a rich, velvety sauce made with cooking cream, garlic, Parmesan cheese, and sun-dried tomatoes and spinach. The sauce perfectly coats the chicken, while the sun-dried tomatoes add a tangy depth, and the spinach provides a fresh, earthy balance. This one-pan meal is as convenient as it is delicious, making it ideal for weeknight dinners or special occasions. Serve it over pasta, rice, or mashed potatoes to soak up every bit of the luscious sauce.
