Creamy Spinach Chicken Florentine Some recipes are quick to whip up and home runs every time, and this Creamy Chicken Florentine recipe checks both of those boxes. It elevates boring chicken breast and bland spinach into a dinner the entire family will love. Check out the recipe video to see how it’s made step by step! Quick Keto Dinners When you’ve had a busy day and all you want to do is whip up a quick keto dinner the first thing that should come to mind is a cream sauce. Our favorite high fat sauces for quick meals are usually made from heavy cream or canned coconut milk. You can then add any meat, veggies and spices and you’ll have an easy keto dinner made in under 30 minutes!
Make An Easy Base An easy base is anything that is quick to whip up and something you can add toppings and/or filling to. Some examples are: # A base of sautéed veggies, # A chicken crust pizza, or # A mixture of heavy cream, minced garlic and butter heated through in a large skillet (our personal favorite) For this recipe we go the route of a creamy base, in which the chicken can cook through without drying out. It’s also easy to add in any vegetables you want for extra texture and nutrition and we go the route of spinach not only because it cooks down really quickly, but because it adds a subtle flavor of fresh greens!
Use Minimal Ingredients Due to the base being so indulgent and creamy you can keep the ingredients minimal. We not only kept it minimal, but also very traditional for this easy florentine recipe with chicken and spinach! Keeping the add-ins minimal, anywhere from two to three, as we have done here allows you to enjoy the flavors that each ingredient brings to the dish.Tender chicken, fresh spinach and the combination of heavy cream, fresh minced garlic and a splash of white wine complement each other perfectly. Something we opted not to use, but can easily be added is xanthan gum to create a thicker base. The only thing I caution with this ingredient is going overboard. A little bit goes a long way! Double The Batch For Leftovers If you’re cooking something as delicious as a low carb chicken florentine then you might as well double the batch for leftovers tomorrow. Since the ingredients, cook time and clean up are all minimal doubling up the recipe will provide the perfect meal prep for the rest of the week. It also reheats well, keeping the chicken tender and flavors strong! Looking For More Easy Dinners? Easy is our specialty.
