Chicken Florentine is a classic Italian-inspired dish known for

sauce with sautéed vegetables, and garnished with fresh

Cooking Procedure

1. Prepare the Chicken:


- Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper.
- Lightly dredge them in all-purpose flour, shaking off excess.

2. Cook the Chicken:


- Heat cooking oil in a large pan over medium heat.
- Add the chicken and cook for about 4-5 minutes per side or until golden brown and fully cooked.
- Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.

3. Sauté the Vegetables:


- In the same pan, reduce the heat to low and add a little butter.
- Sauté minced garlic and onion until fragrant.
- Add sliced mushrooms and diced tomatoes. Cook for about 3-4 minutes until tender.

4. Make the Creamy Sauce:


- Pour the all-purpose cream into the pan. Stir well to combine.
- Add a small amount of water (if the sauce is too thick) and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper.
- Let it simmer for 2-3 minutes to allow the flavors to combine.

5. Add the Greens:


- Gently stir in the water spinach (kangkong) and cook for 1-2 minutes.

6. Combine Chicken with Sauce:


- Return the cooked chicken breasts to the pan, spooning the sauce over the chicken to coat them well.
- Simmer for another 2 minutes to let the chicken absorb the flavors.

7. Prepare the Mashed Potatoes:


- Boil the cubed potatoes in a pot of salted water until tender (10-15 minutes).
- Drain the water, then mash the potatoes until smooth and creamy.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste.

8. Plate and Garnish:


- Place the chicken on a plate with a serving of mashed potatoes on the side.
- Spoon the creamy vegetable sauce over the chicken.
- Decorate the plate with boiled broccoli florets and a sprinkle of chopped spring onions for a finish.
