Instructions

Making Marry Me Chicken Pasta is a straightforward process that yields exceptional results. Follow these steps to create this wonderful dish:

1. Cook the Pasta: In a large pot, boil salted water and cook the pasta according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.

2. Season the Chicken: While the pasta cooks, season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper on both sides.

3. Sear the Chicken: In a large skillet over medium-high heat, heat the olive oil. Add the seasoned chicken and sear for about 5-7 minutes on each side until cooked through and golden. Remove the chicken and set aside.

4. Sauté the Garlic: In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and add the minced garlic. Sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant, making sure not to burn it.

5. Create the Sauce: Add the chicken broth and bring to a simmer. Stir in the heavy cream and Italian seasoning, allowing the sauce to simmer for about 5 minutes until slightly thickened.

6. Add Cheese and Spinach: Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese until melted. Then, add the spinach leaves and cook until wilted.

7. Combine Chicken and Pasta: Return the seared chicken back to the skillet. Add the cooked pasta and toss everything together to ensure the pasta is well coated with the sauce.

8. Serve: Plate the Marry Me Chicken Pasta on individual dishes, garnishing with fresh basil for a pop of color.
