Preparation

Step 1

Bring a grill pan sprayed with nonstick spray to medium heat. Season chicken with salt and pepper, and cook for
about 4 minutes per side, until cooked through.
Plate chicken, and cover to keep warm.
Bring a large skillet sprayed with nonstick spray to medium heat. Add tomatoes, garlic, onion powder, and red pepper
flakes. Cook and stir until hot and fragrant, about 2 minutes.
Carefully add chicken broth to the skillet, and bring to a boil.
Reduce to a simmer. Cook and stir until reduced to a sauce-like consistency, about 5 minutes.
Add chopped shrimp to the skillet. Cook and stir for about 2 minutes, until cooked through.
Add spinach and 2 tbsp. basil. Cook and stir until wilted and well mixed, about 1 minute.
Top chicken with contents of the skillet. Sprinkle with remaining 1 tbsp. basil.

HG Alternative: The large skillet can be used in place of a grill pan, but the chicken tastes best grilled
