Chicken Marinate

ingredients

  • 4 thinly sliced chicken breasts
  • 2 tsp garlic powder
  • 2 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp salt and pepper, to taste
  • 2 tbsp olive oil

Creamy Garlic Sauce

ingredients

  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • 6 cloves garlic, finely chopped
  • 2 cups baby spinach
  • 1 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
  • 1/4 tsp cayenne
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp dried parsley
  • salt and pepper, to taste
  • 2 tsp tomato paste
  • 1/4 cup sun dried tomatoes in oil, sliced
  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 1/4 cup parmesan cheese, grated

Method

  • Step 1

    Mix all the chicken ingredients together and marinate.

  • Step 2

    Place 2 pieces of chicken breast in an air fryer at 390 F for 7-10 minutes (until internal temperature reaches 165 degrees). I did this in two batches. You can do this on a skillet as well.

  • Step 3

    While the chicken is cooking, in a skillet over medium heat, melt butter. Stir in onions and garlic (make sure the garlic doesn't get burnt). Once it's translucent, add the sun dried tomatoes, tomato paste and spices.

  • Step 4

    Stir in the heavy cream and spinach and let it simmer for about 5 to 7 minutes covered or until the spinach is wilted.

  • Step 5

    Stir in the Parmesan cheese and add the air fryer chicken in to the skillet. Enjoy!
