Method

7 steps 10 min prep · 37 min cook

Cook

  1. Step 1. Bring White Rice, Water, and one-third of the Salt to a boil in a saucepan. Cover and reduce the heat to low; cook until the water is absorbed, about 15 minutes.

  2. Step 2. Meanwhile, season Chicken Breast with the rest of the Salt and Black Pepper. Heat half the Olive Oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken in batches until golden, about 2 minutes per side; transfer to a plate.

  3. Step 3. Remove the rice from the heat and let it stand covered until tender, about 10 minutes. Fluff with a fork.

  4. Step 4. Heat the rest of the Olive Oil in the skillet over medium-high heat. Add Mushroom and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned, about 7 minutes. Add Garlic and stir until fragrant, about 30 seconds.

  5. Step 5. Pour in Chicken Broth, scraping up the browned bits. Stir in Heavy Cream and simmer over medium heat until slightly thickened, about 3 minutes.

  6. Step 6. Stir in Baby Spinach, then return the chicken and any juices to the skillet. Simmer until the spinach wilts and the chicken is cooked through with no pink inside, about 3 minutes.

Finish & serve

  1. Step 7. Spoon the rice onto plates and top with the chicken and mushroom sauce.

Tips

Good to know

Check the thickest chicken cutlet with an instant-read thermometer; it should reach 165°F.

Swap it

Use dairy-free cooking cream in place of heavy cream if needed.

Leftovers

Cool leftovers promptly, refrigerate for up to 3 days, and reheat until steaming hot.
