1 1/2 pounds cremini mushrooms, halved
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
4 cloves garlic, smashed
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
4 skin-on, bone-in chicken breasts (2 to 2 1/2 pounds)

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, flavorful ingredients will make your dish taste its best. Look for organic, local, and seasonal produce whenever possible.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the chicken and mushrooms, make sure to give them plenty of space so that they can brown properly. If you overcrowd the pan, the ingredients will steam instead of sear.
  • Cook the chicken until it is cooked through: Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the chicken has reached an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit before removing it from the heat.
  • Wilt the spinach just before serving: Spinach cooks very quickly, so only wilt it for a minute or two before adding it to the dish. This will help to preserve its vibrant green color and nutrients.
  • Season to taste: Taste the dish before serving and adjust the seasonings as needed. You may want to add more salt, pepper, or herbs to taste.
