Ingredients:

• 2 chicken breasts, diced
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 1 cup chicken broth
• 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
• 2 cups spinach
• 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
• 8 oz pasta (like penne or fettuccine)
• Grated Parmesan cheese, for serving
• Fresh basil, for garnish (optional)

Instructions:

1. Cook the Pasta:
   • Cook the pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
2. Sauté the Chicken:
   • In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Season the diced chicken with salt and pepper, then add it to the skillet.
   • Cook until the chicken is golden and cooked through, about 6-8 minutes. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
3. Make the Sauce:
   • In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and cook for about 1 minute until fragrant.
   • Pour in the heavy cream and chicken broth, stirring to combine. Bring to a simmer.
4. Add Vegetables:
   • Add the cherry tomatoes, spinach, and Italian seasoning to the sauce. Cook until the spinach wilts and the tomatoes soften, about 3-4 minutes.
5. Combine:
   • Return the cooked chicken to the skillet and add the cooked pasta. Toss everything together until well coated in the creamy sauce.
6. Serve:
   • Serve warm, garnished with grated Parmesan cheese and fresh basil if desired.
