Chicken, Spinach and Kale Sauté (with Parmesan Cheese)
Say, Kale Yeah to this Healthy Chicken Recipe
It’s hearty, healthy and is a one-pan dinner for easy clean-up.
INGREDIENTS
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1/2-inch-thick strips
- Kosher salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
- 1 medium yellow onion, diced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- Pinch red pepper flakes
- 1 large bunch (about 12 ounces) flat-leaf kale or Spinach, or both, using 6 oz. of each. Stems removed and leaves coarsely chopped
- 1/2 cup dry white wine
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
INSTRUCTIONS
- Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat until shimmering. Add the chicken, season with salt and pepper, and sauté until cooked through, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer the chicken to a plate and cover to keep warm.
- Add the onion, garlic, and pepper flakes to the skillet. Sauté until the onions are starting to soften, about 2 minutes. Stir in the kale, wine, and a pinch of salt. Cover and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the kale is just tender.
- Return the chicken and any accumulated juices to the skillet. Add the Parmesan and lemon juice and stir to combine. Taste and season with more salt and pepper as needed.
