Creamy Garlic Skillet Chicken with Spinach

Drescription

Quick-cooking chicken cutlets are coated in a garlic cream sauce, while spinach adds a boost of color and nutrition to this easy one-skillet recipe.

Ingredients

1 pound chicken cutlets
½ teaspoon salt, divided
½ teaspoon ground pepper, divided
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
3 large cloves garlic, grated
½ cup dry white wine
2 cups coarsely chopped fresh spinach
½ cup heavy cream

Directions

Sprinkle 1 pound of chicken cutlets with ¼ teaspoon each salt and pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken and cook, turning once, until browned and cooked through, about 6 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
Add 3 cloves garlic to the pan and cook, stirring, for 30 seconds. Increase heat to medium-high and add ½ cup wine. Cook until slightly reduced, about 1 minute. Return heat to medium and stir in 2 cups spinach, ½ cup cream and the remaining ¼ teaspoon each salt and pepper. Simmer for 2 minutes. Return the chicken to the pan and turn to coat with the sauce.

Carolina Shrimp & Sausage Purloo

This recipe is inspired by my current region, the Low Country, and the diaspora. I’ve seen versions of this rice dish throughout my years as a chef and my years traveling the West Indies. I saw the similarities with congee and asopao. Also saw similarities with Puerto Rican arroz con pollo, Trinidadian cook-up rice or pelau, and even the famous jambalaya. I feel like this version highlighted this beautiful one-pot rice recipe.

Gluten-Free Irish Soda Bread

Searching for recipes for a gluten-free diet can be challenging during the holidays. Here is a recipe for Irish soda bread that I have adapted over time for St. Patrick's Day. The recipe calls for rice and tapioca flour instead of wheat and it still tastes yummy! Good if wrapped and left overnight, but I think it tastes great right out of the oven. Serve with butter or jam.
