Ingredients

Method

1
Pat the chicken breast halves dry with paper towels and season both sides with salt and pepper. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and lightly coat with cooking spray.
2
Place the chicken breasts in the hot skillet and cook for 5-6 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature of 165°F). Transfer to a plate and set aside.
12 minutes
3
In the same skillet, add the chopped onion and sauté over medium heat for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened and translucent.
4 minutes
4
Pour the fat-free chicken broth into the skillet, stirring to deglaze and release any browned bits from the bottom. Bring to a simmer.
2 minutes
5
Gradually whisk the fat-free skim milk into the broth mixture, stirring constantly to combine smoothly. Add the ground nutmeg and stir well.
6
Add the chopped fresh spinach to the skillet in batches, stirring until each batch wilts before adding more (about 2-3 minutes total).
3 minutes
7
Return the cooked chicken breasts to the skillet and simmer for 2-3 minutes to heat through and allow the flavors to meld.
3 minutes
8
Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper as needed. Serve immediately while hot.
