Easy Chicken Florentine on I Heart Publix

Easy Chicken Florentine – Super Meal To Go With The Sales At Publix

Jan 16, 2020 | Deals, Recipes | 0 comments

We have some really great BOGO deals on some of my favorite things this week…chicken thighs, mushrooms, spinach and tomatoes.

Now there are probably a million different combinations of those ingredients but the one that I knew I’d have on my menu was my Easy Chicken Florentine. It’s always a very popular dish at my house and thanks to the deals, it’s crazy inexpensive this week!

I happen to be a big fan of chicken thighs so I will often sub them in my favorite recipes. This recipe can be made with chicken breast if you prefer and the GreenWise Chicken Fillets are BOGO as well this week. So just pick up the chicken you prefer and you can serve up something tasty that’s easy on the budget.

If you have some pantry staples, I would estimate this costing you around $10…about $2.50 per serving. Great deal in my book. Serve it with pasta, rice or potatoes…whatever floats your boat. I threw in the Ronzoni deal to keep the price per serving low. You can go with what you prefer.

Look for these deals as part of the Publix Ad & Coupons Week Of 1/16 to 1/22 (1/15 to 1/21 For Some)
