Ingredients

Chicken

  • 2 large boneless and skinless chicken breasts halved horizontally to make 4
  • 1/4 cup All Purpose Flour
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

Sauce

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 small onion very finely diced
  • 4 oz. baby spinach leaves optional
  • 3/4 cup chicken stock
  • 1 x 5 oz. pack of Boursin Garlic & Herbs Cheese at room temperature
  • Salt & Pepper as needed

Instructions

  • Cut each chicken breast in half horizontally to make 4 even-sized pieces. In a large shallow dish, mix flour, garlic powder, onion powder, salt and black pepper. Dredge each chicken piece in the flour mixture, shake off excess, and set aside.
  • In a large pan, heat 2 tablespoons of oil over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken for a few minutes on each side until they develop a golden crust and are nearly cooked through. Transfer them to a plate, lower the heat to medium.
  • In the same pan, toss in the spinach and cook for about 30 seconds until it starts to wilt, then take it out and set it aside.
  • Cook the onion for a couple of minutes until it's soft. If needed, add 1 tablespoon of oil to the pan.
  • Pour in the chicken stock and mix in the Boursin until it's well combined with the stock. Let it simmer for a few minutes until the sauce starts to thicken. Return the spinach and the chicken, simmer for about 30 seconds to thicken. If the sauce is too thick, add a bit of stock; if too thin, simmer more. 
  • Serve and enjoy!

Notes

Store: Place the leftover Boursin Chicken in an airtight container. Ensure the container is tightly sealed to prevent moisture and air from entering. Store in the refrigerator. Leftovers can be kept for 3-4 days.
Reheat: When you want to eat it again, warm it up gently in a small saucepan on low heat, stirring every now and then until it's warm.
