Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken thighs or breasts
  • 2 cups baby spinach
  • 1 small onion, diced

  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream

Instructions

  1. In a frying pan over medium heat, cook chopped turkey bacon until crispy (about 5-7 minutes). Remove and drain on paper towels.

  7. Fold in baby spinach until wilted, then sprinkle crispy turkey bacon on top before serving.
