Chicken Florentine Style by Lance Cowart

July 18, 2010 by evebushman

Prep Time: 10 min
Cook Time: 20 min

4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
All-purpose flour, for dredging
6 tablespoons (3/4 stick) unsalted butter
2 tablespoons shallots, sliced
1 tablespoon chopped garlic
1 1/2 cups dry white wine
1 cup whipping cream
1 tablespoon chopped fresh Italian parsley
2 (10-ounce) packages frozen cut-leaf spinach, thawed, drained

Directions
Sprinkle the chicken with salt and pepper. Dredge the chicken in the
flour to coat lightly. Shake off any excess flour. Melt 2 tablespoons
of butter in a heavy large skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken
and cook until brown, about 5 minutes per side. Transfer the chicken
to a plate and tent with foil to keep it warm.

Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in the same skillet over medium heat. Add the shallots and garlic and saute until the shallots are translucent, stirring to scrape up any browned bits on the bottom of the skillet, about 1 minute. Add the wine. Increase the heat to medium-high and boil until the liquid is reduced by half, about 3 minutes. Add the cream and boil until the sauce reduces by half, stirring often, about 3 minutes. 

Stir in the parsley. Season the sauce, to taste, with salt and pepper.
Add the chicken and any accumulated juices to the sauce, and turn the chicken to coat in the sauce.

Meanwhile, melt the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter in another large skilletover medium heat. Add the spinach and saute until heated through.Season the spinach, to taste, with salt and pepper. Arrange the spinachover a platter. Place the chicken atop the spinach. Pour the sauce overand serve.

Servings: 4
