Steps:
- Sprinkle the chicken with salt and pepper. Dredge the chicken in the flour to coat lightly. Shake off any excess flour. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a heavy large skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken and cook until brown, about 5 minutes per side. Transfer the chicken to a plate and tent with foil to keep it warm.
- Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in the same skillet over medium heat. Add the shallots and garlic and saute until the shallots are translucent, stirring to scrape up any browned bits on the bottom of the skillet, about 1 minute. Add the wine. Increase the heat to medium-high and boil until the liquid is reduced by half, about 3 minutes. Add the cream and boil until the sauce reduces by half, stirring often, about 3 minutes. Stir in the parsley. Season the sauce, to taste, with salt and pepper. Add the chicken and any accumulated juices to the sauce, and turn the chicken to coat in the sauce.
- Meanwhile, melt the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter in another large skillet over medium heat. Add the spinach and saute until heated through. Season the spinach, to taste, with salt and pepper. Arrange the spinach over a platter. Place the chicken atop the spinach. Pour the sauce over and serve.

Steps:
- Heat oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add garlic, saute for 1 minute; then add chicken and cook for 7 to 8 minutes on each side. When chicken is close to being cooked through (no longer pink inside), add spinach and saute all together for 3 to 4 minutes.
- Meanwhile, prepare Alfredo sauce according to package directions. When finished, stir in 2 tablespoons pesto; set aside.
- In a large pot of salted boiling water, cook pasta for 8 to 10 minutes or until al dente. Rinse under cold water and drain.
- Add chicken/spinach mixture to pasta, then stir in pesto/Alfredo sauce. Mix well, top with cheese and serve.

Steps:
- Put a large skillet over medium-high heat for 2 or 3 minutes.
- Add 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil and 2 tablespoons butter to the skillet and swirl it around
- Put about .25 cup of flour on a plate. When the butter foam subsides, dredge the chicken in flour, shaking to remove the excess.
- Add the breasts to the skillet and cook so there is a constant sizzle but no burning.
- Cook, turning once, until the chicken is browned on both sides and nearly cooked through, about 5 minutes per side.
- Transfer the chicken to a plate and cover loosely with foil to keep warm.
- Add 1 pound spinach to the skillet and cook, undisturbed, until the liquid from the spinach evaporates completely.
- With the heat still on medium-high, add .5 cup of white wine to the skillet and let it bubble, stirring, until it is reduced by half, about 2 minutes.
- Wait 30 seconds, then stir in .5 cup heavy or sour cream (yogurt is fine if you keep the heat low). Turn heat to low, stirring, until slightly thickened.
- Return the chicken to the skillet, turn in the sauce and serve.
CREAMY PESTO CHICKEN
All the flavors of Italian pesto (fresh basil, pine nuts, Parmesan, and garlic) in a simple creamy sauce. Also works well with thinly sliced pork tenderloin. Add a splash of milk or cream for a slightly thinner sauce. Serve over rice or pasta with extra Parmesan cheese to sprinkle on top.
