Who agrees that there is just something very comforting about a pan full of chicken in a dreamy sauce? Well this one skillet Creamy Tuscan Chicken has all the best flavors like sun dried tomatoes, fresh spinach and garlic with most tender and juicy chicken making this sauce savory and delicious! We like it over my Whipped Mashed Potatoes but it would be delicious over cauliflower rice or hearts of palm "spaghetti". We rarely have leftovers with this one!
