Instructions

Pat chicken dry and season both sides with salt, black pepper, 1/2 tsp garlic powder, and 1/2 tsp onion powder.

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken and sear for 3-4 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through. Remove chicken from skillet and set aside.

Reduce heat to medium. Add butter to the skillet. Once melted, sprinkle in the flour and whisk continuously for 1 minute to create a roux.

Gradually pour in the almond milk while whisking constantly to prevent lumps. Stir in the remaining 1/2 tsp garlic powder, 1/2 tsp onion powder, and 1/2 tsp thyme. Bring to a gentle simmer, stirring until the sauce thickens slightly.

Return the cooked chicken to the skillet. Add the fresh spinach and stir until it wilts into the sauce, about 2-3 minutes. Season with more salt and pepper to taste.

Garnish with parsley flakes.

Final Notes

Serve this creamy chicken dish immediately, perhaps alongside a simple serving of rice or just as a stand-alone, comforting meal. It's a delightful way to enjoy a dairy-free cream sauce.
