Ingredients:
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
Salt and pepper to taste
2 tablespoons of olive oil

Directions:
Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken breasts and cook for 5-7 minutes on each side, or until browned and cooked through. Remove from pan and set aside.
In the same pan, add the chopped onion and fry for 3-4 minutes until softened. Add the minced garlic and cook for another 1-2 minutes.
Add the sliced ​​mushrooms and cook for 5 minutes until starting to brown.
Stir in the fresh spinach and cook until wilted.
Pour in the heavy cream and chicken broth, bringing the mixture to a boil.

Stir in grated Parmesan, Italian seasoning, and red pepper flakes if using. Cook until sauce thickens, about 3 to 4 minutes.
Return the chicken breasts to the pan, pampering them with the creamy sauce. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to warm through.
Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
