Instructions

Heat olive oil in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the chopped onion and diced carrots, cooking until softened, about 5-7 minutes.

Add the chicken pieces to the skillet. Season with salt and black pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is lightly browned on all sides, about 6-8 minutes.

Stir in the diced tomatoes, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, cumin, paprika, bay leaf, and an optional pinch of sugar. Bring to a simmer.

Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and let simmer for 15 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and the chicken to cook through.

Remove the bay leaf. Add the fresh spinach to the skillet in batches, stirring until it wilts down into the sauce, about 3-5 minutes.

Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Stir in parsley flakes just before serving.

Final Notes

Serve this hearty skillet hot, alongside crusty bread or warm tortillas to soak up the delicious sauce. It's a complete meal perfect for a family dinner.
