Creamy Chicken Pasta with Sun-Dried Tomatoes and Spinach
Chicken Pasta with Sun-Dried Tomatoes and Spinach is cooked in a deliciously creamy mozzarella cheese sauce. Done in under 30 minutes, it's as easy as it is tasty!
In a large skillet, add olive oil and heat it over medium high heat. When the pan is hot, add sun-dried tomatoes and sauté for about 2 minutes to soften them. Remove tomatoes from the pan.
Add sliced chicken breast, season it with salt and pepper and paprika. Cook on medium high for about 4 minutes on each side until browned. Remove the chicken onto a plate.
Sauce:
Add butter, onion and garlic cloves to the hot pan. Cook on medium high until onions and garlic are translucent, about 2 minutes. Add 1 tablespoon flour to pan and whisk to combine. Add 1 cup heavy cream, 1 cup wine, 1 teaspoon Italian Seasoning, ½ teaspoon salt.
Bring mixture to a simmering point. Simmer for 4-5 minutes. Remove from heat and add mozzarella cheese, stirring until blended. Taste the sauce and add more seasoning, if necessary.
Add spinach to the mixture and allow it to wilt. Add the chicken and sun-dried tomatoes back into the pan and mix everything well. Taste again and add more seasoning, if necessary.
Cook pasta according to package instructions in salty water. Drain pasta and add it to the skillet with the sauce and chicken. Mix pasta well into the sauce to make sure it's well coated.
