ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

  • 2 cloves garlic, chopped
  • 1 bunch spinach, thick stems removed and coarsely chopped
  • 1/2 cup fresh basil leaves, torn

directions

  • 1

    Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season the chicken with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper and cook until golden, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate.
