Chicken in a Creamy Spinach & Feta Sauce



Get this recipe here: www.dimitrasdishes.com

Serves 6-8:

4 chicken breasts, boneless and skinless
Salt and black pepper to taste
½ teaspoon cumin powder
1 teaspoon dried oregano
¼ teaspoon paprika
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
¼ cup olive oil

The Sauce
• 3-4 tablespoons olive oil or butter
• 2 garlic cloves, grated
• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 1 cup chicken broth (or more)
• 1 and ½ cups whole milk
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 8 ounces baby spinach leaves, roughly chopped
• 4 ounces feta cheese
• Pinch of crushed red pepper flakes, optional

Slice each chicken breast into 2 thin cutlets.
Season each side with salt, pepper, cumin, paprika, oregano, and flour.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add ¼ cup olive oil. Cook the chicken in a few batches 4-5 minutes per side. Set chicken in a baking dish while the sauce is prepared.
Add the olive oil or butter to the pan along with the garlic and flour. Whisk to combine and heat through.
Add the chicken stock and milk and cook over medium heat until thickened slightly.
Season with some salt and pepper and add the chopped spinach.
Cook until the spinach wilts. About 4 minutes.
Taste and adjust seasoning if desired.
Place the chicken back in the skillet and cook over medium heat about 5 minutes or until sauce is thickened and chicken is fully cooked. If the sauce thickens too fast add more chicken stock.
Crumble feta cheese over top and serve with some toasted bread and a salad.
Enjoy!

    Very good recipe, just recommend to use heavy cream instead of the milk and let it thicken if you’re going to use the chicken stock. The ingredients are so good though shouldn’t need it. Overall great video, thank you for the tutorial 👍🏼

    I made it and it was very bland, I upped the spices and that helped but still way too bland for my taste. I'm not saying it was bad it was just pretty much flavorless. TheReaper!

    I have tasted something similar to this dish and It was yummy. Another idea for even slight deeper flavor you can add a touch of white wine when after you stir in the flour.

    Hi Dimitra! Made this recipe last night and it came out very tasty. It is also a very simple recipe to follow and with ingredients we all have at home! Thank you!

    Girl, did you take a bite and roll your eyes at how good it is!! 😀😀🤗 Think I'll make this with pork chops and cabbage for a lil something different.

    Can I substitute the all purpose flour with rice flour or arrow root? Would it crust the same and also help thicken the sauce?
