What’s in Chicken Florentine
This creamy chicken dinner features budget-friendly ingredients that you might already have on hand!
Chicken Thighs: Boneless chicken thighs are preferred. Garlic Cloves: Use fresh garlic for the best flavor, not pre-minced. Olive Oil: I recommend using a good quality extra virgin olive oil. Seasonings: You’ll need a medley of paprika, black pepper, salt, and turmeric. White Wine: Learn all about the best wines to cook with HERE! Heavy Cream: For the creamiest sauce, I don’t recommend using any other dairy product. Spinach: Use fresh spinach, not canned or frozen. Parmesan: Use freshly grated parmesan cheese for the best flavor and consistency. Green Onions: The BEST garnish for chicken florentine!
PRO TIP: If you want to omit the wine, you can substitute it with chicken broth.
What else can I add?
Feel free to add some mushrooms if you’d like! You can also sprinkle in some Italian seasoning for a more herbaceous flavor.
How to Store and Reheat
Once cooled to room temperature, you can store any leftovers you have in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the microwave in 30 second intervals until warmed through.
Serving Suggestions
I like to serve chicken florentine over pasta so none of that delicious sauce goes to waste! Rice works well for the same reason.
