INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast
2 cups Fresh Spinach
1 tbsp Olive Oil
1 Lemon
2 cloves Garlic
Pinch Salt
Pinch Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Pat the chicken breast dry and season both sides with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
Finely mince the garlic and zest half of the lemon; then cut the lemon in half for juicing.
Heat the tablespoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Add the chicken breast to the hot pan and sear for about 5-6 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F, occasionally spooning any rendered juices over the top.
Once the chicken is nearly cooked through, push it to one side of the skillet and add the minced garlic; sauté for about 30 seconds to release its aroma before mixing with the chicken.
Add the fresh spinach to the skillet and cook, stirring gently, until the spinach wilts, about 2 minutes.
Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the chicken and spinach, and sprinkle the lemon zest for an extra burst of flavor.
Serve immediately, making sure each serving gets a healthy portion of pan-seared chicken and sautéed spinach.
