How to make it

  1. 1

    Pat your chicken thighs dry with a paper towel. Season them well with salt and pepper on both sides.

  2. 2

    Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add your chicken thighs and sear them for about 5 to 7 minutes per side, until they are golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

  3. 3

    Reduce the heat to medium. Add the minced garlic to the skillet and cook for about 1 minute, stirring constantly, until fragrant. Do not let it burn.

  4. 4

    Pour in the heavy cream and bring it to a gentle simmer. Stir in the fresh spinach and cook until it wilts down, about 2 to 3 minutes.

  5. 5

    Return the chicken thighs to the skillet. Sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese over the chicken and spinach. Let it simmer for another minute or two, just to warm everything through and allow the flavors to meld. Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious meal.
