Creamy Tuscan Chicken

This is a dish full of savory creamy deliciousness!  It's a lightly fried chicken thigh covered in a cheesy white sauce with spinach and tomatoes.  It is so good!  My kids even love it and they're extremely picky.  I like to pair this chicken with white rice.  You could also pair it with pasta, if you prefer.  Start to finish, this meal took about 30 minutes.

  2. Heat oil in a skillet over medium-low heat.

  3. Place chicken thighs (skin side down) in the skillet and cook for about 13 minutes.  Skin should be crisp.  Move chicken around occasionally so it doesn’t stick.

  9. Place chicken back into the skillet and spoon sauce on top of the chicken.

  10. Serve and enjoy!

*I like to serve this with white rice or pasta.
