Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes, undrained
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 8 ounces uncooked penne pasta
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 3 cups fresh spinach
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add chicken pieces, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Cook until chicken is browned on all sides.
  2. Add minced garlic to the skillet and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
  3. Pour in the diced tomatoes (with juice) and chicken broth. Bring to a boil.
  4. Stir in the uncooked penne pasta. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer for 10-12 minutes, or until pasta is al dente, stirring occasionally.
  5. Stir in the heavy cream and spinach. Cook for 2-3 minutes, until spinach is wilted.
  6. Remove from heat and stir in the Parmesan cheese. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • For a spicier dish, add a pinch of red pepper flakes with the garlic.
  • If you don’t have penne, other short pasta shapes like rotini or farfalle will also work.
  • Ensure you stir the pasta occasionally during simmering to prevent sticking.
