Creamy Chicken with Mushrooms on Mashed Potatoes & Spinach

Boil the peeled and cubed potatoes in salted water until fork-tender, about 10-15 minutes.

Drain the potatoes, then mash them with butter, milk, salt, and pepper. Set aside.

Cook Chicken:

Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning.

Heat olive oil in a large pan over medium heat.

Cook the chicken for 5-6 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from the pan and set aside.

Make the Sauce:

In the same pan, melt the butter over medium heat.

Sauté the mushrooms for 3 minutes until they release their juices.

Add the minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds, stirring constantly.

Pour in the heavy cream and chicken broth, stirring to combine.

Add the Parmesan cheese, continuing to stir until the sauce thickens.

Simmer the Chicken:

Return the cooked chicken breasts to the pan, spooning the creamy mushroom sauce over the top.

Simmer for an additional 2 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

Sauté Spinach:

In a separate pan, sauté the spinach with a little olive oil over medium heat until wilted, about 2-3 minutes.

Assemble the Dish:

Place a serving of mashed potatoes on each plate.

Top with the sautéed spinach and the creamy chicken with mushrooms.

Spoon extra sauce over the top for added flavor.
