INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
1.5 tbsp Olive Oil
2 Garlic Cloves
1 medium Fresh Lemon
2 cups Fresh Spinach
Pinch of Salt
Pinch of Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Pat the chicken breast dry with a paper towel and season both sides generously with salt and pepper.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Add the chicken breast to the skillet and cook for about 5-6 minutes on one side until golden.
While the chicken cooks, mince the garlic cloves and slice the lemon thinly.
Flip the chicken and add the minced garlic and lemon slices to the pan. Continue cooking for another 5-6 minutes or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside to rest.
In the same skillet, add the remaining 0.5 tablespoon of olive oil. Toss in the fresh spinach and sauté quickly for 2-3 minutes until wilted; season lightly with salt and pepper.
Plate the chicken breast and spoon the sautéed spinach on the side. Drizzle any pan juices and remaining lemon over the top for an extra burst of flavor.
