• 3 tablespoons Olive Oil (for marinating and skillet)
• 2 tablespoons Butter (unsalted, for sautéing onions)
• 1/2 cup Onion (finely diced)
• 2 cloves Garlic (minced (or 1 tsp garlic paste))
• 1/4 cup Sun-Dried Tomatoes (chopped, oil‑packed)
• 2 cups Fresh Spinach (packed, roughly chopped)
• 1 cup Heavy Whipping Cream (full‑fat for richness)
• 1 teaspoon Chicken Bouillon Powder (or 1 cube dissolved in 1 tbsp water)

Instructions

1. Prepare the Marinade

   In a mixing bowl combine the seasoning mix with 3 Tbsp olive oil, then add the sliced chicken. Toss to coat evenly and set aside to marinate for 30 minutes.

   Time: PT5M

2. Flour the Chicken

   Place 1/2 cup flour in a shallow dish. Lightly dredge each marinated chicken strip in the flour, shaking off excess. No extra seasoning is needed in the flour.

   Time: PT2M

3. Sear the Chicken

   Heat the cast‑iron skillet over medium‑high heat. Add a splash of oil, then lay the floured chicken strips in a single layer. Cook 4‑5 minutes per side until golden and the internal temperature reaches 165 °F.

   Time: PT10M

   Temperature: Medium‑high heat

4. Set Chicken Aside

   Transfer the cooked chicken to a plate and keep warm while you build the sauce.

   Time: PT1M

5. Sauté Onions

   Add 2 Tbsp butter to the same skillet. Add the diced onion and sauté 2‑3 minutes until translucent.

   Time: PT3M

   Temperature: Medium heat

6. Add Garlic and Sun‑Dried Tomatoes

   Stir in the minced garlic (or paste) and chopped sun‑dried tomatoes. Cook 1 minute until fragrant.

7. Wilt the Spinach

   Add the fresh spinach and toss for 1‑2 minutes until it wilts down considerably.

   Temperature: Medium heat

8. Create the Cream Sauce

   Pour in 1 cup heavy whipping cream, stir, and bring to a gentle simmer. Add the chicken bouillon, grated Parmesan, red pepper flakes, and a pinch of the original seasoning mix. Mix until the cheese melts and the sauce thickens slightly.

   Time: PT5M

   Temperature: Low simmer

9. Combine Chicken and Sauce

   Return the seared chicken to the skillet, nestling it into the sauce. Reduce heat to low, spoon sauce over the pieces, and let everything simmer together for 10 minutes so the flavors meld.

   Time: PT10M

   Temperature: Low heat
