CREAMY TUSCAN CHICKEN (PALEO + WHOLE30)

INGREDIENTS
- 1 shallot, diced
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp Italian seasoning
- 1 tsp sea salt
- 1 tsp pepper
- 4 chicken breasts
- 2 tbsp ghee
- 1/4 cup chicken broth
- 2 tbsp arrowroot starch
- 1.5 cups full fat coconut milk
- 1/2 cup sun dried tomatoes
- 1/4 cup basil chopped
- 3 cups spinach
- Chopped parsley optional topping
INSTRUCTIONS
- Prepare shallot and garlic as noted. Place Italian
seasoning, sea salt and pepper in a small bowl and mix. - Place the chicken breasts between two pieces of parchment
paper and pound them down to make them even in thickness. Sprinkle each side of
the chicken with the Italian seasoning mix. - Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add ghee.
- Once hot, add the chicken to the pan (you may have to cook
the chicken in 2 batches depending on the size of your pan). Cook, without
disturbing for 3-4 minutes, until a nice brown crust has formed. Flip and cook
another 3-4 minutes on the other side, until the chicken is mostly cooked
through. - While the chicken is cooking, whisk together chicken broth
and arrowroot starch. - Remove chicken from the skillet and set aside. Lower the
heat to medium. - Add more ghee if needed and add the garlic and shallot to
the pan. Cook, stirring constantly, for 1-2 minutes. - Add coconut milk, chicken broth, sun dried tomatoes and
basil to the pan. Stir to mix, scraping up any browned bits remaining in the
pan from when you cooked your chicken. - Add the chicken breasts back to the skillet with the sauce.
Cover and turn heat down to low. Simmer for about 5 minutes, or until the
chicken is fully cooked. - When the chicken is almost finished, add in the spinach. You
might have to add it in in batches. Stir the spinach in until wilted. - Serve with vegetables, potatoes, rice or cauli rice. Spoon
some sauce over everything for serving. Sprinkle with chopped parsley
(optional).
