Method

Preparation of Chicken

  1. 1

    Marinate Chicken

    In a bowl, combine olive oil, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Add chicken breasts and coat well. Marinate for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Grill Chicken

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Grill the marinated chicken breasts for 6-7 minutes on each side or until fully cooked and juices run clear. Remove from heat and let rest.

Preparation of Cream Sauce

    In a large skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant. Add spinach and cook until wilted.

  2. 4

    Make the Cream Sauce

    Pour in heavy cream, stirring constantly. Add parmesan cheese, salt, and black pepper. Simmer for 3-4 minutes until the sauce thickens. Adjust seasoning to taste.

Preparation of Rice Pilaf

    Sauté Onions

    In a saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add chopped onions and sauté until translucent.

  2. 6

    Cook Rice

    Add rice to the saucepan and stir for 2 minutes. Pour in vegetable broth and salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes or until rice is tender.
