Follow The Directions

01

Step

Season the chicken cubes generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper. (2 minutes)

02

Step

Heat the olive oil in a large, deep skillet over medium heat. Add the seasoned chicken and sauté until it's cooked through and lightly browned, approximately 6 to 8 minutes. Ensure the juices run clear when pierced. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside on a plate. (8 minutes)

03

Step

Add the chopped shallot and minced garlic to the skillet and sauté until softened and fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add the diced tomatoes and cook for an additional 2 minutes, allowing them to release their juices. (4 minutes)

04

Step

Stir in the condensed cream of mushroom soup, chicken broth, and sour cream until well combined, creating a smooth and creamy sauce. Bring to a gentle simmer. (3 minutes)

05

Step

Add the fresh spinach to the skillet and cook until it wilts, about 5 minutes. (5 minutes)

06

Step

Return the cooked chicken to the skillet, stirring to coat it evenly with the creamy spinach sauce. (2 minutes)

07

Step

Serve the Chicken Florentine immediately, garnished generously with shredded mozzarella cheese.

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a splash of dry white wine to the skillet after sautéing the shallots and garlic, allowing it to reduce slightly before adding the tomatoes.
Feel free to substitute the mozzarella with Parmesan cheese for a sharper, more robust flavor profile.
If you prefer a thicker sauce, simmer it for a few extra minutes to allow it to reduce to your desired consistency.
Serve over rice, couscous, or mashed potatoes.
