Parmesan cheese: Use freshly grated parmesan cheese.
Spinach: Add baby spinach leaves.

How to make creamy Tuscan chicken
Prep and cook the chicken breasts:
First, season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper, then dredge in flour.
Heat a pan over medium heat and add half of the butter.
Then, cook the chicken on each side, and when cooked, transfer the chicken to a plate and set it aside.
Make the sauce:
Add the remaining butter to the pan, melt, and saute the garlic and onion until soft.
Add the sun-dried tomatoes, saute to combine the flavors, and pour the heavy cream into the pan. Add the parmesan cheese, and simmer until it reduces slightly.
Combine all ingredients:
Finally, add the spinach and gently stir to combine with the sauce. Return the chicken to the pan, then spoon sauce over the top and serve.
Tips for making this recipe
