Ingredients
  

2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

Salt and pepper, to taste

2 tablespoons olive oil

4 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

1 cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped

1 cup heavy cream

½ cup Parmesan cheese, grated

1 cup spinach, fresh

12 oz fettuccine or pasta of choice

Fresh basil, for garnish

Instructions
 

Cook the Pasta: In a large pot of salted boiling water, cook the pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

    Season and Cook Chicken: While the pasta is cooking, season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook for 6-7 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and let rest, then slice into strips.

      Make the Sauce: In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and add minced garlic and Italian seasoning. Sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Add chopped sun-dried tomatoes and stir for another minute.

        Add Cream and Cheese: Pour in the heavy cream, stirring continuously. Gradually add the grated Parmesan cheese, mixing until the sauce is creamy and smooth. Bring to a gentle simmer.

          Combine Ingredients: Add the fresh spinach to the skillet and stir until wilted. Add the cooked pasta and sliced chicken to the sauce, tossing everything together until well coated.

            Serve: Divide the Marry Me Chicken Pasta among serving plates. Garnish with fresh basil and an extra sprinkle of Parmesan if desired.
