Preparation
Step 1
1. In a large skillet over medium heat, heat olive oil. Add chicken and season generously with salt and pepper. Cook until no longer pink, 10 minutes per side.
2. Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook angel hair according to package directions until al dente. Drain, reserving 1 cup pasta water, and set aside.

4. Return chicken to skillet, along with spinach. Gently toss until wilted, 1 to 2 minutes.
5. Add angel hair and toss until combined. (Add more pasta water if desired.)
6. Top with Parmesan.
