Creamy Tuscan Garlic Chicken has the most amazing creamy garlic sauce with spinach and sun dried tomatoes. This meal is a restaurant quality meal ready in 30 minutes!
One more week left of school. One. As I look back at this last school year it has flown by! I feel like we were just celebrating Christmas and now we are heading into summer. We are all looking forward to the summer time at our house. Bring on the BBQs, s’mores, swimming, and late nights!
We have been so busy with moving into our new house that we have hardly had any time for a home cooked meal. This Tuscan Garlic Chicken was the first meal that I have made in a while and it is TO DIE FOR!!!
MY OTHER RECIPESThis meal tastes like it is straight from a restaurant. I couldn’t even get over how amazing the creamy sauce was! It has such a delicious creamy garlic taste with spinach and sun dried tomatoes. We all fell in love with the first bite. I couldn’t believe how easy and amazing it was!
Put this meal at the top of your must make list! It was one of the best things our family has had. You can even serve this over pasta making it a delicious meal.
You guys are going to love this just as much as we did!

Hi! This looks amazing and I would like to make it into a crockpot meal. Do you have any tips for this?
That sounds great! I think you will add the ingredients and then cook in the slow cooker until it is warm and done. I hope you enjoy it! XOXO
I’ve made this twice now – very good recipe – thank you! I didn’t use sun-dried tomatoes because my husband can’t have the sodium. I did add mushrooms and served over pasta. Now I want to try your honey walnut shrimp. Thank you for posting.
Hello! This sounds so good and I want to make it so bad. Just one thing. No one in my house, including myself, likes sun dried tomatoes. Do you know if there are any alternatives for it?
You are welcome to leave it out. You could sub it for mushrooms if that is better. It will just alter the taste of the chicken too though.
Try red bell peppers. Mushrooms. Zucchini or Crookneck squash. Pearl onions.
Red bell peppers. Gives it an extra sweet taste 😍
Yum
So delicious, nutritious, beautiful, and EASY!!! I doubled everything and served it over pasta for my family of 5 (who likes leftovers for work lunches). My husband and I both work and I felt like a rockstar when I whipped this up for all of us. Thank you. Oh, Isubbed garlic powder for fresh garlic as each week I chop two heads for meal prep. Our family loves garlic! Xoxo
looks great..going to add fresh portobello’s and sub the cream for 2% milk..thanks for the recipe.
Awesome and delicious. It was very easy to make. My family totally loved it. Thwy said it was restaurant quality.
You were right when you wrote that this was a restaurant-quality meal. I made it today, and it was sensational. I doubled the sauce, as you suggested, and served it over a garlic parsley fettuccine from Bed Bath & Beyond. Absolutely delicious!
I tried this recipe this evening Was very good except when I added the grated Parmesan cheese
the cream sauce separated, cheese looked like a curdled mess and was very watery. Not sure what I did wrong.. I just got bowls out and we ate anyways. Will try again, and see. Wasn’t much to look at, but all was eaten, so not a total fail.
Can this be made w canned tomatoes instead of sun dried.
Yes, it will give a different taste but will work out great! Let me know how it turns out! XOXO
Could I make this with steak instead of chicken?
OH! That sounds delicious! Let me know how it turns out! XOXO
I made this for myself. I typically cook on big meal per week for dinners and lunch. I added mushrooms and used canned tomatoes instead of sundried. I doubled the sauce , but had to add flour to thicken it up. I put it over angel hair pasta! I loved this recipe, and will definitely make it again!
Use real Galic cloves, smash with a wide blade knife and tack away the shell. It makes a total difference in taste compared to powder.
I made this several weeks ago and we are having it again tonight. It’s delicious. We thought it was even a bit better for leftovers the next day as it thickened up a bit. I love your recipes.
How did you reheat the leftovers? I am thinking of making it ahead of time for a dinner party.
Hi, can I skip the parmesan? Maybe sub it with mozerella, will it make the taste different?
I once had grated Parmesan added to some food and really disliked the smell and taste, but this going to get cooked… Should I try cooking with parmasan or sub it?
Unfortunately, that is a key ingredient in the recipe.
I was making this spur of the moment and didn’t realize I was all out of Parmesan until it was too late. I used feta instead, which I wasn’t sure how it would turn out, but tasted great. I added some chili paste and onions. Was really delicious.
Real grated parmasean is totally different than Kraft grated parmasean. It has a strong flavor though so if you want a milder cheese, something like a colby would have a nice flavor. Mozarella is nice on top but does not mix well for sauces.
So yummy i cooked chicken in chopped garlic and add 3xtra 1/2 cup of fresh parmesan cheese. I put it over zucchini zoodles!
Absolutely delicious!!! Thank you!
I have made this recipe several times for family and company and always get rave reviews. The only thing I altered was the cream. I use whole evaporated milk instead, because that is what I always have on hand. I also cut the chicken up in small slices instead of serving whole chicken breasts. I can stretch 2 chicken breasts to feed 4 to 6 people this way. Serve with green salad and artesean bread for a wonderful meal!
This was great! I doubled the sauce over pasta. I used almost an even amount of chicken broth and heavy whipping cream. For the chicken, I threw in smashed garlic and seasoned both sides with salt and pepper. I used fresh tomatoes and mozzarella cheese as I didn’t have parmesan cheese on hand. The sauce didn’t thicken, so I used a little cornstarch mixed with water as a paste. Came out delicious!
This was so good. I had mine over cauliflower rice and my daughter over pasta. 👍🏼👍🏼
Hello,
Just wondering what the nutritional values are in this recipe.
Please let me know. Specially, net carbs
Thank you!
Ps: absolutely Dili should and so easy. A perfect date night dinner

I love this recipe. Every time I make it for company, I am asked for the recipe. It’s delicious. The first time I made this I did it in my frying pan, the second time my Dutch Oven. I always make this in my Dutch Oven now. Hands down it’s more yummy. There’s something about cooking in a Dutch Oven that enhances the flavor. I love all of your recipes, this is one of our favorites.
I make mine in a cast iron skillet – amazing! And I add 4 minced garlic cloves to the pan after I take out the chicken and sauté until you can smell it. Then I also use the garlic powder because it really makes the recipe. For keto people like myself, you can thicken the sauce with xanthan gum (just a little goes a long way). Then I serve over cauliflower rice that has been sautéed with caramelized onions. Heaven!
This is so good and so easy! My daughter just texted me from school asking if I would make it for dinner tonight:)
I made this tonight – family loves it. I used sun dried red peppers because I can’t fine sun-dried tomatoes anywhere. Next time I make it there will be a half pound less chicken, and corn starch to thicken the sauce. Sauce was too thin for us. Strange I can’t give it less that five stars the program wont let me.
This truly fantastic. Your right, a good restaurant quality dish. I have a question. I have a lot of people coming and staying over the holidays and wondered if this Creamy Tuscan Garlic Chicken can be made ahead and frozen.
My families favourite chicken recipe and so easy to make. Thank you!
This was a huge hit with my family! Thanks so much for the recipe!
i am always making your recipes. so far all are awesome.
thank you

I NEVER post reviews for recipes, but I had to for this one. Every recipe of yours so far that I have tried has always been successful, but man oh man, this one (Tuscan garlic chicken) was so amazingly delicious! I, like others, don’t really care for sundried tomatoes – so what I did was add sliced cherry tomatoes. I doubled the sauce recipe as suggested and tossed it with fettucine pasta. There is a little bit leftover, and I know we will all be fighting for it on leftover night! Thank you!
AW! Thank you so much! I am so happy that you have enjoyed some of my recipes! Thank you for your comments! XOXO
Love this recipe especially while I am on ketos 😍
