Ingredients
  

12 oz penne pasta

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 pound chicken breast, diced

Salt and pepper, to taste

4 cloves garlic, minced

1 cup sun dried tomatoes in oil, drained and roughly chopped

1 cup heavy cream

1 cup chicken broth

1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

½ cup grated Parmesan cheese

½ cup fresh spinach

Fresh basil leaves, for garnish

Instructions
 

Cook the Pasta: In a large pot of salted boiling water, cook the penne pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

    Sauté the Chicken: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Season the diced chicken with salt and pepper. Add the chicken to the skillet and cook for about 5-7 minutes until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

      Prepare the Sauce: In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and cook for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Stir in the sun dried tomatoes and cook for an additional 2 minutes.

        Combine Ingredients: Pour in the heavy cream and chicken broth, stirring to combine. Sprinkle in the Italian seasoning and let it simmer for about 3-5 minutes until slightly thickened.

          Finish the Dish: Return the chicken to the skillet and stir in the Parmesan cheese until melted. Add the cooked pasta and fresh spinach, tossing everything together until well combined and the spinach has wilted.

            Serve: Plate the creamy pasta and garnish with fresh basil leaves. Enjoy your creamy sun dried tomato chicken pasta!
