Steps

1Season chicken breasts with salt, black pepper, and 1 tsp oregano.
2Place a large skillet over high heat and add 2 tbsp of butter to it with some of the oil left after draining the sun-dried tomatoes.
3Add in the chicken breasts and cook for 4 minutes on each side until browned. Once the chicken breasts have fully cooked and are no longer white, remove them from the pan and set them aside.
4To make the sauce, lower the heat and add the remaining 1 tbsp of butter into the same pan. Add in the onion, garlic, the remaining 1 tsp of oregano, and sun-dried tomatoes. Cook for 2-3 minutes until onion softens.
5Pour in the chicken broth, heavy cream, and Parmesan cheese. Mix to combine until the sauce is smooth. Let it simmer for 2-3 minutes, and add some salt and black pepper to taste.
6Add in the spinach, stir, and cook until it wilts. It will take around 2-3 minutes.
7Add chicken breasts back into the pan, cover them with the sauce, and let them cook until they heat up for 3-5 minutes.
8Garnish with chopped parsley before serving.
