Ingredients:
- 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 4 cups chicken broth
- 2 cups fresh spinach, chopped
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:
- Heat your olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Toss in the diced onion and sauté until it’s translucent. You want that beautiful golden color!
- Add in the minced garlic and cook for another minute. Your kitchen should be smelling divine right about now.
- Next up, throw in the chicken breasts and season with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning. Sear the chicken for about 5-7 minutes on each side until it’s nicely browned.
- Pour in the chicken broth and bring it to a simmer. Cover and let it cook for about 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked through.
- Once the chicken is ready, remove it from the pot and shred it into bite-sized pieces. You can use two forks or a hand mixer for this – whatever floats your boat!
- Return the shredded chicken to the pot and stir in the chopped spinach.
- Finally, pour in the heavy cream and heat until everything is warmed through. Adjust seasoning as needed. If you like it a little spicy, sprinkle in some red pepper flakes!
And now, you’ve got yourself a pot of creamy chicken spinach soup that’ll have everyone coming back for seconds! Serve it up with some crusty bread on the side, and you’re golden. Enjoy!
