4 servings
For the chicken
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 6 oz each)
Chef's tipChoose an unbreaded plant-based cutlet and cook it according to its package - ignore the recipe's raw-chicken cooking times and temperatures - then use it where the cooked chicken goes. - ½ tsp kosher salt
- ¼ tsp black pepper
- 2 tbsp olive oil, divided
For the sauce
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- ½ cup dry white wine
- 1 cup chicken broth
Chef's tipUse the same amount of low-sodium vegetable broth. The dish will be a little lighter in flavor than with chicken broth. - 1 can (13.5 oz) full-fat coconut milk
- 1 tbsp all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp dijon mustard
- ¼ tsp crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
For the spinach
- 5 oz fresh baby spinach
- salt and pepper, to taste
For serving
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
- lemon wedges, for serving (optional)
Instructions
- 1
Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels and season both sides with 1/2 tsp kosher salt and 1/4 tsp black pepper.

Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the chicken breasts and sear undisturbed for 5–6 minutes, until the underside is deep golden and releases easily from the pan. Flip and cook for another 5–6 minutes, until the chicken reaches 165°F (74°C) on an instant-read thermometer at the thickest part. Transfer to a plate and tent loosely with foil.
