Ingredients
4 boneless chicken breasts
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes (oil-packed)
2 cups fresh spinach
1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
1/4 cup cream cheese
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/4 cup water or chicken stock
1 tablespoon lemon juice
Instructions
Preheat oven to 200°F (95°C) for keeping chicken warm.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Season chicken breasts with garlic powder, oregano, salt, and pepper. Sear for 5-6 minutes per side until golden.
Transfer chicken to a baking sheet and keep warm in oven. In the same skillet, add garlic and sauté for 30 seconds.
Stir in sun-dried tomatoes and spinach, cooking until wilted (2-3 minutes). Add Greek yogurt, cream cheese, Parmesan, water (or stock), and lemon juice. Cook until sauce thickens (4-5 minutes).
Pour sauce over chicken and serve immediately.
Notes
For stronger garlic flavor, use roasted garlic. Substitute 1/4 cup coconut milk for cream cheese if dairy-free. Toss with zucchini noodles or jasmine rice for a complete meal.
