     Title: Chicken Florentine
Categories: Poultry, Cheese, Wine, Herbs, Greens
     Yield: 4 Servings

   1/4 c  A-P flour
   1/4 c  Parmesan; grated,
          - more for serving
          Salt & black pepper
     4    Thin-cut chicken breasts
          - (1 lb); boned, skinned
     1 tb Olive oil
     4 tb Butter
     1 md Shallot; minced
     2 cl Garlic; minced
   1/2 c  Dry white wine
   1/2 c  Chicken broth
     1 ts Dried basil
     1 ts Dried oregano
   1/2 c  Heavy cream
     2 oz Cream cheese;
          - room temperature
     2 c  Baby spinach (3 oz);
          - packed

 On a plate, mix together the flour, Parmesan and 1 ts salt and
 pepper. Dredge each chicken breast in the mixture, evenly coating
 on both sides.

 Heat a large pan over medium. Add olive oil and 2 tb butter to the
 pan and melt to combine. Add the chicken and cook until golden
 brown (but not cooked through), about 4 minutes on each side.
 Remove chicken from pan and set aside.

 Add remaining 2 tb butter to the pan and let it melt. Add shallot,
 garlic, and a pinch of salt, and cook, stirring until the shallot
 is softened and the garlic is aromatic, about 2 minutes.

 Add wine, broth, basil and oregano, and stir, scraping the browned
 bits from the bottom of the pan, until the liquid has reduced by
 about half, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the heavy cream and cream cheese
 and stir, allowing the cream cheese to soften and melt, until a
 thick sauce forms, about 6 minutes. Add baby spinach and stir until
 it is folded into the cream sauce and the spinach is beginning to
 wilt, about 1 minute.

 Return the chicken breasts to the pan and simmer until the chicken
 is cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat and serve
 immediately with freshly grated Parmesan on top.
