Ingredients
10 – 12 chicken tenders, or 2 large chicken breasts, cubed
1 tablespoon olive oil or avocado oil
1 pint heavy whipping cream
1 cup water
1 GF chicken bouillon cube
1 teaspoon garlic powder
2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
1 cup Parmesan cheese
2 cups spinach, chopped
1 – 2 medium tomatoes, chopped
14 oz gluten free fettuccine
Directions
- Begin by boiling salt water for pasta. Cook pasta while preparing the sauce.
- Heat oil in a large skillet, add chicken and cook 3 – 5 minutes until no longer pink in the middle. Removed the chicken and set aside in a bowl.
- Add cream, water, bouillon, garlic powder, Italian seasoning and Parmesan cheese. Whisk until sauce starts to thicken.
- Add chopped spinach and tomatoes. Simmer until spinach starts to wilt.
Serve over pasta. Enjoy!
Notes
- I pack the spinach into a measuring cup to measure it, then pour it out and chop it.
- In the photo I used 1 tomato. My kids don’t love tomatoes, so I don’t add too many. If you like tomatoes, by all means add more!
