INGREDIENTS

• 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
• 1 tablespoon unsalted butter (or sub more olive oil)
• 1 small onion, chopped (see notes)

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper.
2. Heat oil and butter in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add chicken and onion and sauté for 7-8 minutes, turning chicken pieces once.
3. Add garlic and cook an additional 30 seconds.
4. Add broth and bring to a boil. (I turn the heat up to high to help it go faster.) Stir in rice, then cover, reduce heat to medium-low and cook for 5 minutes.
5. Remove lid, stir in spinach, then cover and remove the pan from the heat. Let sit for 5 minutes or until liquid is mostly absorbed. (See notes for troubleshooting tips.) Stir in spinach to help it wilt.
6. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and serve hot.
