Chicken with Mushrooms and Spinach

Chicken with Mushrooms and SpinachNot only do you cook this entire recipe in one skillet you serve from it as well.
I used boneless, skinless chicken thighs but you can use the chicken parts you like. I decided after traveling for 5 weeks I needs to have something on the healthier side.
You will need:

  • 2 lbs boneless skinless chicken thighs
  • 8 ounces baby bella mushrooms sliced thick2 cups fresh baby spinach or more
  • 1 tbs olive oi
  • 1/2 tbs of butter
  • 1/4 cup chicken stock
  • 1/2 cup dry white wine
  • Salt
  • Black pepper

Directions:

  1. Salt and pepper the chicken.
  2. In a large skillet (I use a non stick) add the olive oil and once it’s hot add the chicken and allow it to cook on a high heat for 3-5 minutes. You are looking for a nice golden brown color.
  3. Flip the chicken and cook the other side the same way. Remove the chicken from the skillet.
  4. Add the stock and scrape everything off the bottom of the skillet then add the mushrooms. Allow this to cook for 2-3 minutes.
  5. Now add the white wine, butter and then the chicken back to the skillet. Flip the chicken several times, cooking this for another 3- 5 minutes.
  6. Once you have checked to be sure the chicken is done turn off the heat add the spinach fold it into the chicken and sauce, cover with a lid and allow this to sit for 2 minutes. I serve mine directly from the skillet as it makes no sense to serve it any other way, at least to me.
