  • 2 large boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cubed
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinaigrette salad dressing
  • 1 bunch fresh spinach, rinsed and dried

  • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinaigrette salad dressing
  • Directions

  • Step 1

    Place the chicken breast meat into a skillet with 2 tablespoons of olive oil and 2 tablespoons of balsamic vinaigrette over medium heat; cook and stir until the chicken is browned, no longer pink in the center, and the juice has nearly evaporated, about 10 minutes. Remove the chicken to a bowl and let cool.
