Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken thighs
  • Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 8 ounces mushrooms, sliced
  • 1/4 cup dry white wine
  • 2 cups baby spinach
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  2. Heat olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Season chicken with salt and pepper, to taste. Add chicken to the skillet and cook until golden, about 2-3 minutes per side; set aside.
  3. Add onion, garlic and mushrooms to the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, until onions are translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
  4. Stir in white wine, scraping any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet, and bring to a simmer. Cook until liquid is reduced by half, about 2-3 minutes.
  5. Stir in spinach until wilted, about 1-2 minutes.
  6. Add heavy cream and Parmesan cheese; season with salt and pepper, to taste. Return chicken to the skillet.
  7. Place into oven and bake until chicken is cooked through, reaching an internal temperature of 165 degrees F (74 degrees C), about 18-20 minutes.
  8. Serve immediately, garnished with parsley, if desired.
