Tuscan Chicken Recipe (Video)

Are you ready for summer flavours? Today I offer a wonderful chicken recipe with creamy sauce that is very easy to prepare.

How to prepare this recipe

For this Tuscan-style chicken to be fragrant and tasty, you must brown the chicken breast before making the sauce. In this way the chicken will remain juicy inside, and the sauce will be tastier due to the taste of browned chicken.

Always put the spinach close to the end because it does not require a long cooking time. When the dish is ready you can serve it with pasta, potatoes or rice. It is very good also with crispy bread.
