I used a Le Creuset pan and it worked well. There is plenty of sauce left over, so you can add more spinach if you like.

Mix chicken with salt and paprika, brown in 2 tbs. of butter, remove the chicken pieces and drain fat, Now melt 1 tbsp of butter in pan, put in cream, chicken stock, parmesan cheese, 2 cloves of chopped garlic, , thyme and lemon juice in pan, Let it boil and cook for 3 to 5 minutes.
