Ingredients
- 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- 3–4 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 cups broccoli florets
- ½ cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- 2 cups fresh spinach
- ½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 4 oz cream cheese, softened
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Season the Chicken: Sprinkle chicken with salt, black pepper, and Italian seasoning.
- Cook the Chicken: Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook chicken for 5-7 minutes until browned and fully cooked. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
- Sauté the Vegetables: Add 1 tbsp olive oil to the same skillet. Cook garlic for 30 seconds until fragrant. Add broccoli and cook for 3-4 minutes until slightly tender. Stir in cherry tomatoes and cook for another 2 minutes.
- Combine Everything: Return the chicken to the skillet. Add spinach and cook until wilted (1-2 minutes).
- Make It Creamy: Stir in softened cream cheese until melted and combined. Sprinkle mozzarella on top and let it melt.
- Adjust Seasoning & Serve: Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Serve hot and enjoy!
Notes
- Spicy Kick: Add red pepper flakes or a dash of hot sauce.
- Dairy-Free Option: Use dairy-free cream cheese and omit mozzarella.
- Protein Swap: Substitute shrimp or tofu for the chicken.
- Extra Veggies: Add mushrooms, zucchini, or bell peppers.
- Creamier Sauce: Stir in a splash of heavy cream for extra richness.
