Step 1

Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook for 5-7 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside. In the same skillet, add the chopped onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened. Add the minced garlic and cook for another 1-2 minutes. Add the sliced mushrooms and cook for 5 minutes until they start to brown. Stir in the fresh spinach and cook until wilted. Pour in the heavy cream and chicken broth, bringing the mixture to a simmer. Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, and red pepper flakes if using. Cook until the sauce thickens, about 3-4 minutes. Return the chicken breasts to the skillet, spooning the creamy sauce over them. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to heat through. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
