How to make it

  1. 1

    Pat the chicken thighs dry and season them generously with salt and pepper.

  2. 2

    Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken thighs for about 5 to 7 minutes per side, until they are golden brown and cooked through. Remove chicken from the pan and set aside.

  3. 3

    In the same skillet, add the sliced mushrooms. Cook them for 5 to 7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they release their moisture and start to brown.

  4. 4

    Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.

  5. 5

    Pour in the heavy cream and bring it to a gentle simmer, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Let it simmer for 2 to 3 minutes to thicken slightly.

  6. 6

    Add the fresh spinach to the pan, stirring until it wilts into the sauce.

  7. 7

    Return the cooked chicken thighs to the skillet, spooning the creamy mushroom sauce over them. Heat through for a minute or two before serving. Enjoy your delicious meal.
