Steps:
- Spread chicken thighs on a clean work surface. Pat dry with paper towels and season both sides with salt and pepper. Sprinkle 1/2 of the Italian seasoning all over them.
- Heat oil in a 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken thighs and brown for 3 minutes per side. Remove chicken to a plate and keep warm.
- Add onions to the same skillet and stir up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Cook, stirring occasionally, until onions just start to become tender, 3 to 5 minutes. Add mushrooms and cook until they begin to soften, about 4 minutes. Stir in garlic and remaining Italian seasoning. Taste and adjust salt and pepper. Cook and stir for 1 minute.
- Add chicken broth and return chicken thighs to the skillet. Reduce heat to low, cover, and cook until chicken juices run clear, about 15 minutes. An instant-read thermometer should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove chicken to a cutting board and cut into bite-sized pieces.
- Return chicken to the skillet and increase heat to medium. Add tomatoes and spinach. Cook and stir until tomatoes are heated through and spinach is tender, but still bright green, about 3 minutes.
- Stir in 1/2 cup heavy cream and balsamic vinegar; bring to a gentle boil. Cook and stir for 3 minutes. If you prefer a creamier sauce, add more cream. Serve with shaved Parmesan cheese.

Steps:
- Melt butter in heavy large pot over medium heat. Add leeks, carrots, potatoes, herbs and garlic. Sauté until vegetables begin to soften, about 5 minutes. Add 1 3/4 cups broth; bring to boil. Cover pot, reduce heat to low and simmer until vegetables are tender, about 20 minutes.
- Mix condensed soup and cream into vegetables. Add chicken. Simmer until heated through, thinning with additional broth by 1/4 cupfuls, if desired about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
Tips:
- Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all of your ingredients and utensils ready. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling around in the middle of cooking.
- Season your chicken well: Don't be afraid to season your chicken with salt and pepper. You can also add other spices or herbs, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
- Cook the chicken thoroughly: Make sure the chicken is cooked through before adding it to the sauce. You can check this by inserting a meat thermometer into the thickest part of the chicken. The chicken is cooked when the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Don't overcook the vegetables: The vegetables should be cooked until they are tender but still have a bit of a crunch. If you overcook them, they will become mushy.
- Use a good quality cream: The cream sauce is the star of this dish, so it's important to use a good quality cream. Heavy cream or whipping cream will give you the best results.
- Serve immediately: This dish is best served immediately after it is made. The sauce will start to thicken as it cools, so if you wait too long to serve it, it will become too thick and gloopy.
Conclusion:
Chicken with vegetables in a cream sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The chicken is tender and juicy, the vegetables are full of flavor, and the cream sauce is rich and creamy. This dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
