• 2 cups baby spinach, packed
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 1 lemon, juice
• salt and pepper to taste

directions

1. Heat the oil and butter in a pan over medium-high heat, add the chicken and cook until lightly golden brown on both sides and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes per side, before setting aside.
2. Add the garlic and saute until fragrant, about a minute.
3. Add the wine and deglaze the pan by scraping any brown bits up off of the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon as it sizzles.
4. Add the broth, capers, artichoke hearts and chicken, bring to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer until the sauce thickens a bit, about 3-5 minutes.
5. Add the baby spinach and butter and cook until the spinach wilts and the butter melts, about 2 minutes.
6. Add the lemon juice and season with salt and pepper to taste, before mixing in the parsley and enjoying!
