This creamy paleo tuscan chicken is a super-tasty one-skillet meal that’s perfect for weeknights and full of flavor! Boneless, skinless chicken thighs are seared and cooked with a creamy sauce packed with spinach and sun-dried tomatoes. Paleo, dairy-free, Whole30, and Keto friendly!
One-skillet dinners make my ain’t-no-time-momma heart sing. That’s a real thing, of course.
And by “heart singing” I just mean I feel approximately 15% less stressed out by the chaos of life when I know I can make dinner in just one skillet. I’m sure there’s at least a few of you ladies out there who can relate!
When there’s only one skillet needed to cook dinner from start to finish, it gives me hope that I can, in fact, make it to 9pm without a complete meltdown. Not anything to take lightly – we need these one-skillet meals.
Okay, hopefully I’ve sold you on the one-skillet thing but if not, I’m sure I will with everything else about the actual recipe.
It’s a creamy Tuscan chicken that’s totally dairy-free, paleo, gluten-free and packed with veggies! It’s relatively low in carbs as well, with the only carb source really being the sun-dried tomatoes.
If you’d like an even lower-carb keto option, you can always use fewer sun dried tomatoes.
For the chicken, I knew from the start I’d have to go with boneless skinless THIGHS, not breasts. Breasts are great if you’re “breading” your chicken but honestly they are way too dry in my opinion for anything else – even a creamy sauce.
The thighs cook almost as quickly and they have 10x the flavor, crispiness, and juiciness of the breasts. We’ll season them, sauté, and then remove from the skillet while we make the yummy sauce.
So yes – it’s one skillet only, but, you’ll need a plate of some sort. Use a paper one if you’re like me and can’t stand the thought of another dish!
The sauce itself is similar many creamy sauces I make – a combination of chicken bone broth and coconut milk, with some tapioca to thicken.
I add a little stone ground mustard and nutritional yeast as well, which, in my opinion, cuts the flavor of the coconut milk enough so that you can barely taste it.
I know many of you are sensitive to coconut flavor, so if you really want to cut the taste, you can use a bit more tapioca to thicken, more broth, and less coconut milk. But, I encourage you to try the recipe as written since the coconut flavor is really quite minimal!
I hope you’re ready for a full-of-flavor, one-skillet meal that you’ll want to throw right into your dinner rotation ASAP! Grab your chicken and a nice big skillet because it’s time to cook – let’s go!

Looks delicious! Could I use almond milk instead of coconut?
apkbranch.com is the best website to download your favorite apps and games.
This was absolutely delicious!
Made this tonight. Oh my yummy!!! I increased the liquid because I like lots of sauce. Thanks for the great recipe.
I want to make this recipe but I am curious what side everyone paired it with
It’s got such a lovely sauce it goes well with so many things – cauliflower rice, zucchini (sautéed or spiralized), roasted veggies … I don’t care for spaghetti squash, but I bet it would go great here.
We have 3 teenagers, therefore 3 sides – mashed potatoes, fettuccine & Mueller’s flat, medium noodles. This is the second time making this absolutely delicious recipe. I did increase the broth & coconut milk a bit for our gravy lovers.
This dish is delicious! My whole family loved it and made it again for a larger group party – huge hit!
Can cashew milk be used instead of coconut? Hubby doesn’t like the coconut taste
This looks delicious! Any recommendations to substitute for the the full fat coconut milk? My husband is allergic to coconut, but I would love to make this recipe!
This sounds and looks absolutely delicious! A warm, creamy, and hearty meal! Yum!
Can I put this all in a crockpot to cook and wilt the spinach for 5 mins before serving? Never used coconut oil or milk in a crockpot before
Thanks it looks delicious
I do!
Another great recipe! My husband and I both enjoyed it. I shouldn’t be surprised, we love all of your recipes!!
Can I use chicken breasts instead of thighs?
This was amazing! So flavorful and pretty easy. My husband and kids loved it. Served it with white rice for the kids and cauli rice for the adults. Would also be great with mashed potatoes/cauli!
Can this be made ahead?
I made this for company and it was great. I love your recipes. Thank you.
Made this recipe this evening and it was wonderful!
Hi Michele,
Your Creamy Tuscan Chicken pictures make me hungry!! What happens if I leave out the garlic?
This was absolutely delicious. And super easy.
Very delicious meal, better than with dairy products. My non paleo son (19) even liked it.
This was so delicious. I added some basil. Yum.
Loved this recipe! Also added some mushrooms along with the sun dried tomatoes and spinach.
Made this for company and it was great. Will make again.
This is absolutely delicious!
I do agree. Give the coconut milk a try in this recipe and you won’t remember there’s coconut milk used. I absolutely loved eating this dish. It was easy and flavorful. The coconut-based sauce was delicious and definitely different from other coconut-based sauce I tried! Thanks for sharing!
I made this tonight!! It is delicious… I will definitely make it again! Highly recommend
Would it still be Whole 30 with Chicken Breast instead of thighs?
Definitely good but I wouldn’t say great. Very innovative though! (And yes, I followed the recipe exactly.) I love that it is grain and dairy-free so I’ll probably use it as a base recipe and tinker with it to suit our tastes.
I made a revised version of this recently and it’s delicious. I was a little skeptical with it calling for mustard but it was so good! I didn’t keep it paleo because I used cream and parmesan but I’d like to try it just as written. I’m sure it would be amazing.
Delicious, interesting flavors and honestly so easy! Thank you for a new and fail proof dinner!
Actually got a round of applause when I made this recipe….lol….First time ever!! Thanks so much for sharing your awesome recipes, just experimenting with them recently with some picky eaters and having really great results.
Actually got a round of applause….wrote this earlier but forgot to click on the stars…..hope it doesn’t affect the rating of this delicious dish…thanks again.
It looks really delicious. So delicious in fact that I don’t mind seeing the same picture of it 19 times before getting to the recipe…
simple is le simple viste
This dish was fabulous, with tastes abounding. Loved the ease and simplicity, even with a number of great ingredients and spices. Will become a family staple.
Made this tonight!!.. Had to use Almond milk and fire roasted diced tomatoes – because our little small town grocery store didn’t have everything. BUT, it still turned out amazing! Thank you so much!
I made this chicken recipe, for the first time, for family and friends and they loved it. It was sooo good. It’s the perfect meal for those who are diabetic too. It’s a very impressive recipe. I totally recommend it. I didn’t put the yeast or the spinach in it though. Per Mary K, adding basil would be good too. Good job.
This recipe is fantastic! Easy to make and delicious! I almost doubled the chicken and doubled the spinach so had less sauce:chicken but loved it.
I made this for dinner tonight and it was SO good! We all loved it. It tasted much fancier than a 30 minute meal. I would totally serve this to guests.
Wow! Tasted so incredible!!
Lovely meal enjoyed by all the family had oven roasted potatoes with it (slightly less Keto)
Such a great recipe!!! My family said it was a keeper. Thanks for this simple and quick dinner option!
OMG!! This was ahhhmazing!!!!
I made this last night for dinner and everyone loved it, including my toddler! I used bone in chicken thigh which needed more time to cook. I also added mushrooms and didn’t use the nutritional yeast.
I double the recipe which meant two pans, making it a bit harder. I wish there was an easier way to double or triple the recipe. I may cook triple the chicken in the oven and the sauce in a Dutch oven and combine together next time. This mama’s gotta batch cook with two little ones!! Thanks again, very delicious!!
We really like this recipe. I’m Whole30, the fam is not but they eat what I cook. I was told to add more sundried tomatoes and keep the recipe. 🙂
My husband and I love this recipe! I have made it twice, the second time a double batch because leftovers re-heat well for lunch. It’s very forgiving and I don’t have to measure things exactly which fits my cooking style (that looks like 1/4 cup coconut milk, a few handfuls of spinach will do…). I have added asparagus and red peppers for a veggie boost (cooked with the onion). I’ll be including this in my rotation
This meal was fast, tastey the kids loved it. I had energy afterwards. I didn’t feel like that heavy feeling. Thanks so very much.
Is the something I can use instead of nutritional yeast? Any good substitute you can recommend? I’m excited to try this recipe!
Recipe looks good. I wish included would be recommendations for doubling/trippeling the recipe. Also we should know ALWAYS about making ahead so we are not frazzled last minute in the kitchen and can enjoy our company.
Oh my goodness! Incredible article dude! Many thanks,
However I am going through problems with your RSS. I don?t know
why I cannot join it. Is there anybody else getting identical RSS issues?
Anyone that knows the solution will you kindly respond?
Thanks!!
Did you use dried – sun dried tomatoes or sun dried tomatoes in a jar?
Made this for dinner tonight and it was DELICIOUS!!!! My son doesn’t like when i cook with coconut oil and milk…. he never tasted it!!! Definitely will be a regular dish in our home!!! I love all of your recipes making one of your Banana Breads tonight.
delicious recipe. great first time paleo dinner. family really liked it.
In my mind, it looked better than it tasted. I’ll make it again, but will omit the Italian Seasoning. I found that to be out of place.
I love your brand! Trying to figure out how I can print a recipe without using 9 pieces of paper any suggestions?
Your photos make it look like you used skin-on thighs, or you ran it under the broiler? Otherwise I don’t understand how you got the chicken browned that way.
Made this and loved it. I used chicken breast instead of chicken thighs and it was delicious. Now I have a coworker asking for the recipe! Directing her to your website. Can’t wait to try another one of your recipes!
This was my first time using nutritional yeast in any recipe. And this was the best recipe to try it out in. My whole family LOVED it! My husband doesn’t always like Paleo recipes. And he usually can taste the coconut milk in anything. But not this! This will be a recipe we use when we want to impress our friends when they come over for dinner. We had this chicken over cauliflower rice and our side was green beans.
Delicious! Made it just as is. Even my hubby loved it. Easy, quick and flavorful!
Wow! Soo delicious! I’ve made twice. Once with beef broth and once with a dark stout instead of the chicken broth. Highly recommend! ????
This was really, really good!!
Out of the world good. Best dish yet.
So thrilled you enjoyed!
Loved this recipe! This is the first of your recipes I have made, and will definitely be back for more! So simple to make, with staple ingredients. My hubby loved it, and everyone at work was asking for the recipe!
SOOO GOOD!!!
Absolutely love this recipe! It’s a huge hit every time I make it!! Are the nutritional values for the whole recipe or per serving? Thanks!!
I forgot to submit stars in my previous comment – 5 stars all the way!!
So I LOVE your recipes. Your sausage sweet potato recipe is totally a staple in my house and I’ve given it to more than one co-worker all with great success. I have been eyeing this recipe for a few weeks now and was finally going to make it tonight, but it would seem I accidentally bought coconut CREAM instead of whole fat coconut milk. Would that totally ruin the consistency? Is that totally the wrong thing? Should I just run back to the store to get coconut milk? It seems like this means I wont be making this tonight, but if you could let me know how badly I made a mistake that would be stellar. Thanks so much! Your blog is the only one I ever recommend 🙂
My teenagers and I loved this! It’s easy to make, delicious, and healthy.
Husband and I were amazed how good this was! Definitely recommend. It’s a little salty with the sundried tomatoes so don’t add too much salt. I don’t usually leave reviews but this was too good not to recommend
I’ve made this twice and my vegetable despising husband and kids ate it all! Delicious thank you!
Excelente
This is a wonderfully delicious recipe! I used cherry tomatoes cut in half (not grape tomatoes)because they’re juicier than sun dried. I also patted the thighs dry before sautéing in very hot avocado oil (because you can get it very hot without smoking…gives a nice brown sear to the chicken. Otherwise, followed the recipe exactly. It was great!
Such a great idea to use cherry tomatoes instead of sun dried tomatoes. How did you cook it? Did you add it in the skillet with the garlic (step 3)?
Easy and awesome!
Yes. Made last night
OMG!!! This recipe is so delicious! I made this for my family at Christmas. Both my sister and I are Celiac. She is trying to lose weight post cancer treatments and is following a keto diet so this recipe was PERFECT!
Easy to follow but packed with flavour!!
Definitely making more of your recipes!
Thank you!!
My husband and I tried this recipe, as is, and loved it. It’s definitely part of our favorite recipes now. I like the recipe because of the ingredients, especially the boneless chicken thighs. We find they have much more flavor that chicken breasts. GREAT RECIPE!! Thanks for sharing.
Can’t wait to make this again! I forgot spinach at the store so subbed in artichoke randomly, and it still was delicious. I love this lighter, healthier version — and so did my husband!!
Fabulous. The flavors are superb!
I made this with 4 frozen chicken breasts and added everything to a pressure cooker. I cooked it for 70 minutes on a manual setting. I served it on top of riced cauliflower tossed in amino acids. We loved it! Definitely an additional to our weekday meals.
I’m making this again as it’s one of my favorites! Can I substitute the spinach for kale?
Hi Michelle!
K finally made this dish after drooling over it for a year! It was so easy and delicious! You are my go to blog
For all things whole30.
Thank you!
Trying this recipe tonight! Love your site! All the ads are a bit annoying
This was absolutely delicious. Thank you for sharing! I had coconut cream open from last night, so I used that up in lieu of coconut milk. I didn’t have any sundried tomatoes, so I substituted diced cherry tomatoes, which worked fine. My husband and 17 year old son also loved this dish!
I forgot to mention that I only had organic boneless, skinless chicken breasts on hand, so I used those in lieu of chicken thighs!Thighs would probably be more tender, but the flavor was so great it really didn’t matter.
Another great recipe! This was so delicious!
Another great recipe—I’m nightshade-free, so I left out the sun dried tomatoes and added a tablespoon or so of sherry vinegar—still delicious. Thanks so much for being such a great resource for people trying to heal their bodies
Excellent! I had to add a bit more chicken broth because it thickened up very quickly.
This dish is delicious. the whole family loved it.
This is a family favorite! Delicious! My kids eat it with pasta and my hubby and I eat it with doodles or spaghetti squash!
AWESOME & THANK YOU Paleo Running Mama. I made this for the second time and it is yummy & complete with oven roasted sweet potatoes on the side. I cut up the chicken into smaller pieces because my son does not like any kind of fat or texture like that. My kids are picky and my husband use to cook professionally so when they all like it, I know this is a keeper.
I will be be making the tuscan chicken and avocado chicken salad. They look great
Easy to make and perfect for after a busy day. My eight year old daughter asked for seconds; yay!!!
Thank you so much for sharing!
Once again, this recipe was easy to follow and was delicious! Will definitely make this regularly.
Amazing!! My family (three kids and a husband who won’t have anything to do with coconut milk) had no idea that it wasn’t made with heavy cream, and they gobbled it up going back for seconds!! Thank you for the recipe! I did cut the salt down a bit because the sun dried tomatoes here (in Germany) are very salty for some reason.
I have made this numerous times. It’s a family favorite and I typically double the recipe. So tasty and healthy.
This is a family favorite. It’s delicious and healthy.
I hate to be one of those people who changes the recipe and then comments, but I’m going to;)
I baked chicken breasts in the oven because I was in a rush (450 for 18 minutes) and I did the sauce in the skillet at the same time. I kept everything else the same and served it with basmati rice (instant pot). Originally I was going to do potatoes, but time got away from me. Anyway- the end result was chicken breasts, which I thinly sliced after cooking, with sauce on top and a side of rice that got mixed in as desired.
AMAZING! We all loved it! You couldn’t tell it was coconut milk at all. It was really good. I will probably use garlic powder in the future because fresh garlic added a sweetness, combined with the sun dried tomato sweetness that was slightly more than I wanted. But even with that, it was fabulous and so flavorful. I will absolutely make this again and again! Thank you so much.
This was beyond delicious…I’m on day 3 of my first Whole 30. Served it with pasta for the kids and hubby and I had peas (which I’m thrilled are now Whole 30 approved) and a baked potato. This will go into my regular rotation even when I’m not doing Whole 30. The whole family LOVED it! Thank you for sharing 🙂
I made this recipe twice in a week. It’s been a couple of weeks so I’m making it again. It’s that good! My husband said it tastes like it came from a fancy restaurant 🙂
Amazing flavor, thank you! I’m always looking for amazing Paleo recipes having an AI disorder, and this recipe makes me feel like I’m not sacrificing. I’m usually a little weary substititing coconut milk for cream, worried it just won’t taste quite the same, but I couldn’t tell the difference. On your 3rd recipe and all have been so flavorful.
I made this for dinner tonight and it was SO good! We all loved it. It tasted much fancier than a 30-minute meal. I would totally serve this to guests.
This recipe is delicious. It tastes better and looks so much brighter and more beautiful than a heavy cream version! I doubled it and my family ate every bite.
I made this a couple of weeks ago. It was so delicious! Another family hit. Would like to make extra sauce next time. Thank you!
Substituted kale for spinach and put over cauli mashed **chefs kiss **
I don’t usually like chicken thighs. But holy moly this was amazing. Will definitely be making this again. Next time, I’ll be adding way more spinach though because it was so tasty!!
Love this dish! I’ve made it a couple times with black olives in addition to the sun dried tomatoes and spinach…delicious!!!
I am wondering why you don’t answer the questions asked in the comments, or am I just not seeing them? I like to see the answers, as it helps me with the recipes.
This is the second meal I’ve made from your recipes and my family has really liked them. Thank you for sharing. I’m no pro but this meal was quick and easy.
Made this recipe tonight for the first time and it is very yummy! I used chicken breasts instead of thighs because that is all I had, but it turned out great. Husband and toddler liked it too. Thank you for the wonderful dinner!
I made this dish for my husband and I. I’ve never used nutritional yeast before, but you are right, we didn’t taste the coconut flavor. My husband and I both loved it. I will be making this dish over and over again. Thank you for sharing!
I used one can of full fat coconut milk, and one can of lite coconut milk in place of the broth and arrow root/tapioca powder. Also used cut up chicken breasts. Kepts everything else the same. Delicious!!
I totally understand why this is one of your most popular recipes. This recipe is absolutely fantastic! I’ve recommended this to several people, and all have loved. This has become a staple recipe in our household – we were making it weekly for a little while! Can’t wait until the next time we make it 🙂
Unbelievably wonderful!!!! Thank you so much for sharing this recipe. I can’t wait to try out more. Not only did the Tuscan chicken taste great, but the whole house smelled great all night! Never been more excited for left over night before. So Happy!
So good the first time!! Coming back to make this again!
So I’m counting calories for weight loss. How in the world is this 367,999 calories converted?! I don’t use kcal so when I converted 368 kcal it gave me a large number.
The color of mine turned out very dark–not at all light and creamy looking like the picture. It was tasty, though.
Oh, wow – tried this the other night – OMG!! so yum, easy. Hubby was duly impressed. It’s on our regular recipes list now!!! Do yourself a favour and try it, you won’t regret it!!!
Oh, wow – tried this the other night – OMG!! so yum, easy. Hubby was duly impressed. It’s on our regular recipes list now!!! Do yourself a favour and try it, you won’t regret it!!! (Sorry, forgot the star rating before)
Delicious! Next time I’m going to use olive oil to cut down on the coconut taste though it was still mild! I may or may not have licked the plate…
A few things:
1. I never add comments to recipes on websites or blogs. It either works or it doesn’t. There are plenty of comments who mirror my sentiments so there isn’t a need. However, I feel the need to really say something about this recipe. IT WAS THE BEST CHICKEN I’VE EVER HAD.
2. I also added mushrooms along with the sun-dried tomatoes. Delicious!
I forgot to mention that this is a 5-star recipe.
Great recipe! I have made it yesterday and everyone in my sweet home totally loved it! Thanks for sharing.
I found this recipe few months ago and it has been my favourite ever since. My only problem is I enjoy it most over corn pasta.. I tried sweet potatoes and zucchini noodles, but nothing beat the non-paleo side dish. 🙁
Thank you for the recipe and stay awesome!

This was sooo delicious!!! Thank you for the recipe!
I realized that I’ve made this so many times that I should probably leave a rating at this point! I sometimes use left-over shredded chicken (from making stock) instead of a chicken breast or thighs, and though the texture is very different, I love that, too. Thank you for such a great recipe!
This recipe is delicious!! The only big changes I made were doubling it for my larger family, and adding artichoke hearts. My kids could not believe it was paleo! Definitely going in the rotation. Thank you!
Would not make again. Did not enjoy this recipe, not creamy, a bit bland.
This was so delicious. We ate it last night over potatoes. I may have let the sauce thicken up a bit too much before adding in the sun dried tomatoes and spinach but it worked out SO YUMMY! My partner ate 2 servings and that’s rare!
There is so much flavor in this dish it’s amazing. Made mine with chicken breasts over cauli rice and I will definitely be making this again.
This is one of our very favorite recipes! So rich and flavorful. I do add some sliced mushrooms and kalamata olives as well…adds an even greater depth of flavor!
So Michele, every time I print out a recipe of yours part of the 1st word is always blanked out…really weird. It’s not my printer either as it ONLY happens on your recipes…any ideas? I do see a green star over the word “Chicken” for example and that’s the part that doesn’t show up. Not a big deal, but just curious.
This was SO good! I didn’t have any tapioca so used corn starch (I know not paleo friendly) but turned out great. I cooked in my Le Creuset but it wasn’t brown and crispy looking like the pic. Were those skin on chicken thighs? If not how did you do it? So good
This was SO good. I was a little confused about how to add the arrowroot, so I whisked it in with the bone broth and it worked perfectly. Thanks for a great recipe!
Home run! Family loved it! I added artichoke hearts to it and it was delish!
OMG!!! This recipe was better then I could have imagined. I just changed my diet eliminating gluten, wheat and dairy. I have been following you for ideas and this one was fab! I made for the whole family and they loved it! Thank you 😊
Hi! Made this for the first time this evening. I tasted the broth before serving and thought it needed some acid. So I squeezed the juice from 1/2 eminent in and I think it was perfect! No need to Cho the spinach. 😎. Excellent recipe!
I cannot believe I went through a whole30 program without this recipe! It was delicious. My sauce was much darker, so I think I got the pan too hot, but the flavor was amazing anyway. Thank you for this! I will dig into some of your other recipes now.
SO good and so easy! I’ve made this three times now and it’s one of my husbands favorite dinners. Tonight I used a Tuscan seasoning blend I found at a spice store in place of the other dry spices and added a can of black olives at the end. My husband isn’t paleo so I serve his over a bed of buttery rice and top with Parmesan. I have mine with extra sautéed spinach. Thank you for this recipe! I’ll be making a batch of this to have as a freezer meal for my maternity leave as well
So so yummy!! When you think you want to quit Whole 30, try this!
So, so yummy! Definitely a “must try”
I love your recipes, and this dish was sooooooo good! Instead of sun dried tomatoes, I roasted a pint of grape tomatoes in lotsa garlic, olive oil, rosemary, thyme s&p till they were nice and tender, and used them instead. This sauce also came out really great and full of flavor. I think I might squeeze in some fresh lemon juice right at the end, but other then that it was a huge hit!
This is really good. I did it over a mashed cauliflower for the in-laws. They LOVED it.
Was delicious. Didn’t have sundried tomatoes used cherry instead and was awesome can’t wait to try with sundried
Easy to put together and a lot of goodness in one pan, but with all the coconut I didn’t get ‘Tuscan’ out of it. Edible but unfortunately will not make a regular rotation in our household.
Yummy! Everyone loved it! Thanks
pop over to these guys Bitniex
This was SO easy and so delicious! We run a wellness accountability coaching business and every single client we sent this recipe to that tried it texted back that it was amazing. It’s so easy to make and has ingredients we typically keep on hand. Probably our fave recipe discovery of the year!!
So wonderful
This was fantastic! It was so easy to make. It’s my new favorite!
Excellent pieces. Keep writing such kind of info on your
page. Im really impressed by your blog.
Hi there, You’ve done an excellent job. I will definitely
digg it and for my part recommend to my friends.
I am sure they will be benefited from this site.
Amazing, my whole family loved it! Swapped out sun dried tomato for grape tomatoes. Delicious!
I am totally with you with the thighs over breasts debate … That being said, we have a ton of chicken breasts that my husband bought in our freezer. What modifications would you make to the recipe to accommodate breasts? It looks so good!
Love all of your recipe’s. I find myself looking for recipes and when I see it’s by “paleo running momma” I know it’s a good one.
And out 2 yr old is actually eating my cooking now! Bonus 🙂
Question – hubby has a garlic allergy. I know it’s horrible because garlic is delicious. What would you substitute in its place?
really really good. Faked out my husband big time. He didn’t realize we were eating the “same thing”. I have some severe autoimmune issues and finding great recipes is difficult!
My family loves this recipe. My 3 year old eats up the chicken. My husband always takes the leftovers for lunch and never leaves me any!
Creamy Tuscan chicken was outstanding!
This is going into my weekly rotation!
Thank you for the great recipe!
So so good! Really flavorful – will be making again!
I wish I’d found this recipe sooner. It’s definitely staying in my rotation…I finished off the extra sauce in the pan with a spoon, it was that good! To balance out the richness I made a side of sauteed zucchini & yellow squash.
I’ve made this dish numerous times already since recently discovering this recipe! It is unusual for my husband to comment on a chicken dish, but he devoured it and said “oh, you can make that one again, wow.” 🤩 It is thick, creamy, and packed with flavor!
This was so so good. It came together easily. Can’t wait to make it again
Sooo good!
Loved it. I made the sauce and put it on salmon. Reminds me of Chicken Bryan from Carabbas – but with salmon.
Fantastic! I made this for my family and almost everyone ate it. There are 9 of us, so that’s saying something! I paired it with roasted green beans which tasted great dipped in the sauce.
Can you use chicken breasts instead of chicken thighs? Any recommended modifications to support this swap?
This meal is fantastic! I have a confession – I did swap in chicken breasts. I know I know – you specifically said NOT to use
chicken breasts – but I have a mental block against chicken thighs so took the risk. And it was still delicious! I just mashed them with a mallet until they were very thin and used a meat thermometer to make sure I didn’t overcook them or dry them out. So everyone else – imagine how good it will be if you trust the genius chef and go with the thighs! Mmmm. A great whole30 option.
I’m making this tonight for the second time. It’s my husband and teenager’s new favorite meal! They have been begging me to make it again. Absolutely delicious!
Just made this tonight. I have Hashimotos and had googled “Heath eating for people with Hashi” and your page came up. It is absolutely delicious… however, mine doesn’t look like yours at all. Lol. The broth/sauce is a dark brown…did I do something wrong?
Overall an exceptional, full-flavored Whole30 recipe. I added my tapioca starch/ 1 Tbsp. coconut milk slurry at the end since tapioca starch loses its thickening properties the longer it cooks. I also found that I needed an additional 1/2 coconut milk. Loved the addition of nutritional yeast – nice, buttery flavor with the tang of the mustard (I used spicy brown since I didn’t have stone ground). I did half & half ghee with coconut oil so there was no coconut flavor whatsoever. Husband is not a fan of tomatoes but I thought they were great in this dish. Next time I will use red pepper pieces instead and then add some crisp bacon pieces at the end. Very versatile cream sauce. Big fan of your recipes. Thank you!
Great “special occasion dish” that I make just for myself during weekdays 🙂 Since food sensitivities have forced me to become paleo, it feels like mealtimes are full of sad compromises. But this recipe was a hit even with non-paleo/restricted friends. A big THANK YOU. Michele, you are so talented!
This is delicious! In my rotation of favorites! Thank You!
Wow! Was looking to change up dinner a bit and came across this recipe. Made it tonight – using thighs (for my better half) and 1 breast (for me). Delicious!! He had 4 thighs and asked for me to put this on our regular rotation.
It’s delicious!!!
Oh my goodness! Hubby loved this one!
Thank you!
We substituted the sun dried tomatoes and used a half a can of tomato paste, about 3 ozs. It was so yummy! Of course we doubled the spinach too for added nutrition. Definitely a keeper!
I substituted the spinach with basil. I added sautéed mushrooms. Then finished it off in the oven 350 degrees for approximately 20-25 minutes.
My family loved it !
Phenomenal recipe! Major hit with family and friends! thanks for your recipes!
Made this recipe last night and I was surprised by how delicious it was. I was worried the coconut milk would give it too much of a coconuty flavor but u really couldn’t tell.
Loved it!
Thank you for the recipe Michele! I really enjoyed this for dinner tonight, it’s so flavoursome! IS there a sub for the tapioca flour out of these: xantham gum, psyllium husk, coconut flour, almond flour? I think the first two are sometimes used as thickeners
I’m new to cooking paleo and this was my first recipe to try! Delicious! Thank you so much for sharing!
I’m new to Paleo and have been exploring recipes. I made the yuca fries last night! Delicious! I made this tonight and also so delicious! I would have liked to add more veggies. It reminded me of chicken Marsala. Thanks for great recipes. I’ll be back to your website!
Absolutely delicious! I’ve made it twice now and it’s become a family favourite.
I made this last night, the whole family loved it, even my fussy 8-year-old grandson. They have already asked me to make it again. So good.
So good! Quick and delish perfect for a weeknight meal and I had plenty of leftovers for lunch the next day
Best ever!!!
So delicious and so easy to make. Will definitely be making this again.
meant to leave a 5 star rating
Love this article! It is a helpful post I really like this article so much. Thanks for sharing.
I used yellow curry and tumeric as additional seasonings. I omitted the nutritional yeast. By far one of the most best chicken dishes I have every made.
Love it! I really appreciate this simple recipe! So easy and yummy! 😉
Love this recipe! Lots of flavor without being heavy. I substituted 2% milk for the full fat coconut only because I thought I had, but didn’t. I have made both ways though. Served with cauliflower rice and a small salad.
So delicious and easy!!! Made it for a girl’s night and they ate every bite!
Love! Really needed a few new dinner ideas. Loving the coconut milk/nutritional yeast combo to make a sauce. I omit the thickeners to do keto. So, I add stock base and omit the water. I did have to add some water in the end to stretch. I think the sun dried tomatoes absorbed a lot, they were dried in a bag not packed in oil. I used fresh basil and oregano in the sauce. I’ve been missing food I enjoy. Tastes like a real dish, not something altered.
Oh, and no coconut taste! It really blends. Same with the chicken Marsala version. The sauce is tasty and not coconut. I used to avoid coconut based sauces because that’s all I’d taste. Not for these recipes. So much flavor.
This is a family pleasing meal! My teenage boys and husband requested it again and that’s high praise in this house. I added red pepper flakes at the very end so my toddler could devour some with us. Absolutely – love the balance of flavors – the richness of the dish – and the ease with which it comes together
For all those wondering – cashew cream is a beautiful substitute no changes needed – except to thin the sauce to your liking after adding. Very forgiving, I almost never use breasts (too dry), but occasionally substitute them here with good results
I think I’ll try cashew milk, but cashew cream is something I’ve never seen. Someone had success with almond milk, so I figure it should be alright.
Love the single skillet; tomatoes & spinach makes it delicious! Cauliflower rice or zucchini noodles are both good choices!
Amazing! Thank you so much, this was the best meal I’ve had in a long time even pre-whole30!
This looks amazing!!! I can’t wait to try it. 1 pan dinners are the way to go during the crazy work week!
My husband and I have been trying the paleo diet for awhile now, so I made this recipe for a date night and we loved it! I’m hoping to make it for the whole family soon but my daughter is allergic to coconut… could I replace the coconut oil with something else? If so, any recommendations? Thank you!
Yum. This has become a staple in our house. Even my husband who hates coconut and mustard has been known to request! Only change I made is that I use grape tomatoes as I don’t care for sundried.
I needed to add some cows milk since I didn’t have enough coconut. I know that’s not paleo, but I’m ok with that. Needs a good dose of salt at the end. We loved it and will make again!
loved this Tuscan Chicken recipe. thinking of trying it at the weekend for my whole family. nervous + excited. thank you for sharing it.
Unbelievably wonderful!!!! Thank you so much for sharing this recipe.
Fabulously delicious!! So much flavor! Easy to make – one pan is great, too! Have shared & will make again! I will double the sauce next time it is so good!
OMG!!! I usually don’t leave reviews, but this was awesome!!! Thank you for the recipe. The time to make it was worth it!! I added a little more chicken broth because I had more chicken thighs.
Do you think this would be good without the tomatoes or spinach? I have high histamines and can’t have those.
This is a delish recipe. I have made it several times. I always use chicken breasts. Tonight I made it without Coconut milk! First time I was out of coconut milk I just used a little more broth.
Love this and everything Michele makes.
This was really yummy. I had quite a bit of burnt on stuff from cooking the chicken and I shouldn’t taken as much out as I could because I think it made my sauce a little bitter. Otherwise it was absolutely delicious. Thank you so much for sharing 🙂
Very good
This recipe turned out so good! I didn’t have nutritional yeast but my family still loved it. My dad already asked for the recipe!
Such a yummy recipe quick and delicious
Do you use the sun-dried tomatoes that are in oil? If not, what kind do you use?
Since the author has left this question from multiple people unanswered, I’ll chime in. It doesn’t matter which type you use. I like the ones in a jar because they’re cheaper where I live.
Lovely meal enjoyed by all the family had oven roasted potatoes with it (slightly less Keto)
This creamy Tuscan chicken recipe is a healthy and easy dinner. It’s full of Mediterranean posterdle flavors, making it the perfect meal for any occasion.
So good!!!
This was wonderful! This was my first recipe of yours to make. Look forward to making more!
Everyone else has already told you this is amazing but I’m gonna chime in and agree. Big hit with hubby and kiddos. We definitely will be repeating. I cooked some Korean glass noodles made with sweet potato starch to go with this and it was perfect!!
I threw it out
I threw it out
Then you did not make it correctly
Excellent recipe. My non paleo teenager love this. My son called me to thank me for packing it for his lunch. I Served this with zucchini noodles. Soaks up the sauce wonderfully.
This was absolutely delish! I followed the directions to the T, only thing I did differently was us only 1/2 cup of Sun Dried Tomatoes and they were the ones from a jar in oil and herbs. Defiantly will making this again!
So good. So so good. I didn’t think I’d be able to satiate my craving for a creamy pasta while doing Whole30, but this was incredible. Followed the recipe exactly, served on zucchini noodles, and looking forward to making again with more veggies
I know this is an older recipe so I don’t know if you will see this. But I made this today and it smelled so good and came out so tasty. I only had bone in skin on thighs so I had to cook the chicken longer. And I did not have spinach so I used zucchini noodles. It definitely didn’t look anywhere near as nice as your photos, lol. But it was delicious and perfect for a weeknight meal. I had my husband taste it who’s not on any type of diet and he said it was really good and can’t wait to have it tomorrow for dinner.
I can’t eat coconut, so I substituted with ghee and Pacific Foods cream of cauliflower soup. My family could not tell there was cauliflower soup. My family loved it.
I love this recipe. I always use 0% sugar oatmilk and thicken it for cream sauces. No one in the family knows the meals are dairy free.
This was very yummy and came together fairly easily! I didn’t include sun-dried tomatoes but I did toss in some fresh cherry tomatoes.
Great! I made extra sauce and served over spaghetti Squash. Thank you! It’s a keeper recipe.
Is it canned coconut milk?
Just made this tonight and OMG! I used roasted red peppers from a jar instead of the tomatoes. Served it over rice. Truly amazing!
Highly recommend
Delicious! I added sliced carrots & mushrooms too.
This was fabulous. My husband and I enjoyed it so much we are serving this next week for our dinner party. Our thighs were on the smaller side so we had two each. Yum yum.
My kind is dinner, all in one skillet. Added more garlic and used arugula instead of spinach. Still incredible. By the way I do have your baking book. It’s pretty awesome as well.
We have made this recipe numerous times as it is a family favourite. It is so creamy and delicious.
Great chicken dinner. I used a jar of sun dried tomatoes in oil which made it supper easy to chop and add to the dish. It felt like I was eating very rich food. Just as good warmed again for lunch the next day.
I made this last night and it was delicious! I don’t like coconut milk so I subsituted 1/2 cup of raw cashews and blended them with the remaining sauce ingredients in my blender. The sauce was delicious! I crisped up the skin on the chicken thighs and to keep it crispy I served the sauce over roasted potaoes and used the sauce to dip my chicken in. I had some extra sauce left over and it tasted amazing over roasted veggies and eggs this morning. Yum!
This dish was excellent! My kids enjoyed it even if I was missing the nutritional yeast. My hubby has already requested the recipe from me.
So tasty, new to Paleo/Whole 30 and love finding a great recipe the whole family can enjoy.
This was AMAZING! Perfect blend of flavors and so good to be gluten free, dairy free whole food!
Delicious! Creamy Tuscan chicken. Do you think this can be frozen? Trying myself to get healthy and this was my first recipe I’ve made in a long time
I made this one night for my family of 4. We all enjoyed it. I was glad I had doubled the recipe and had plenty to freeze for later. Tonight we had the leftovers & we all enjoyed it. I think it was even better than the first time. Yumm!
My family really enjoyed this – even the kids. I am grateful that it is possible for us to eat healthier. Thank you!
I made this for dinner last night for my family and they loved it, even my picky eater!! It was delicious!
Wonderful! Making it again today for a quick, premade early weeknight meal. Followed directions exactly as written except only had 1/2 C sun-dried tomatoes. Served over seasoned cauli rice. Still super tasty and even better next day. No coconut flavor detected at all. Just rave reviews! Thanks much!
this recipe is AMAZING!!!! i used chicken tenders instead of thighs just because i cook with them more frequently and it was still so good!!! i paired it with zucchini noodles which was perfect😍
Hi, Thanks for sharing this yummy recipe! Can I use ghee instead of coconut oil? I prefer using ghee since I came to know the ghee health benefits. Will it be fine?
So I just want to put out a warning about using coconut oil on medium high heat…I have a fairly new glass stovetop in America and I set my heat to “5” (which is medium level heat; it’s not even “medium high” heat). I preheated my stainless steel pan on the level 5 heat, tossed in the 1 tablespoon of coconut oil, it melted immediately, smoked and within seconds, it quickly caught fire. Apparently the smoke point of coconut oil is 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Thankfully, the fire was quickly dealt with and everything is okay. I just wanted to impart that following the instructions to a tee might be dangerous. I would use a lower heat setting if using coconut oil, or I would use an oil with a higher smoke point like avocado oil. Otherwise, the recipe turned out beautifully and it tasted good. I restarted it with a new pan on a level 2-3 setting (low-medium heat) and it might have taken a tad longer, but it looked like the picture when it was done.
Oh my goodness! This is so flavorful! I seriously thought I was in Italy!! PLEASE stick to the recipe!!! The only thing I did differently was cut the chicken in large cubes. 😋 and I have extremely picky eaters.
This recipe is DELICIOUS!!! I made a double recipe half for mevhalf for my aunt. I want to keep the whole thing!! I’m getting some more chicken to make a batch to freeze!
Very clear and detailed instructions. thank you for sharing!
I made this tonight and it was delicious! My 4 year old said it was the best dinner he’s ever had lol I doubled the sauce per some of the comments and I’m glad I did because we served it over some brown rice pasta and it was just the right amount. I’ve been making your recipes for years and this one was so good that I hand wrote it to put in our family recipe book 🙂 Thank you!
This recipe looks delicious. Will must try this.
What can we use in place of coconut milk. My daughter is allergic
I regret to say that the Creamy Tuscan Chicken recipe I tried was a disappointment. The consistency turned out more soupy than creamy, lacking the promised velvety texture. The flavor profile failed to capture the essence of Tuscan cuisine and left us with a bland mishmash. Overall, the dish didn’t live up to expectations, and I won’t be recommending it to anyone looking for a satisfying Creamy Tuscan Chicken experience.

Made this for a church pot luck and it was a huge hit.
I had extra broth after folks took the chicken so I came home and broke up some gluten free lasagna noodles into it and cooked it up – so yummy!!!
creamy tuscan chicken is very great.
I like it.
Doing Whole 30 I’m always looking for new recipes to try and I must admit, I was shocked at how much I loved this one. The coconut taste is quite subtle and overall it really worked with the other flavors. I used some ghee in place of/in addition to the coconut oil just b/c I love it, and I didn’t have Italian seasoning so I just tossed in some dried basil and thyme (realized I didn’t have oregano). Parboiled and roased some diced potatoes, roasted asparagus… even the guy said it was very tasty and he’s pretty meh about most foods. Thanks so much!
Love it! I really appreciate this simple recipe! So easy and yummy!
I LOVED this recipe!!! It’s my 3rd time making it this week!
I have made this recipe several times for company. It is always a big hit. Thanks for an easy and delicious recipe.

This is excellent. My husband loved it, too. I had to use chicken breasts because I did not have thighs. I chopped the spinach more finely and think the sun dried tomatoes would be better chopped finely, too. I may add mushrooms next time. The leftovers were delicious two days later, as well.

This dish is so great. I had to adapt it slightly to make it low FODMAP because of my ibs so used garlic infused olive oil instead of coconut oil and just used the herbs I had available. I squeezed lemon juice at the end because I felt it needed acid to balance the richness and savouriness. But everyone in my family loved it and we will definitely make it again. Thanks you for sharing 🙂

I followed the recipe exactly, but it turned out bitter.
I was nervous how this would turn out, but it was SO freaking good. I ate it over rice. My husband ate it over angel hair pasta. It gives off bruschetta flavor vibes
Absolutely delicious! Definitely a keeper!

All I have to say is GOOD GOD. This is absolutely delicious, filling, and pretty easy weeknight dinner to throw together—not a ton of prep and chopping involved, which is a huge blessing when you’re cooking a lot. I’d add some mushrooms next time and I didn’t have fresh basil to finish it off, but I can tell the basil would really add some brightness. I will probably be making this weekly for the foreseeable future!

Fantastic recipe! My husband and I do Whole30 from time to time, and your recipes are among my favorites since they never fail to disappoint!
I made this two nights ago and have enjoyed the leftovers for the past two days (so glad Hubby isn’t a leftovers guy – I don’t have to share!).
The recipe is excellent as is, but I wanted a hint of umami, so I added a trace of anchovy paste and ghee to the leftovers. So good!
Thanks for another stellar recipe, Michele!
i appreciate that
wonderfull article.
i ile this one
i really like thsi
…
This is incredibly delicious! (I did add 1 TBS balsamic oil for some acidity to bring the flavors together). My only regret is not using chicken leg quarters or even chicken breasts as thighs just never have enough meat on them.
This will certainly be in frequent rotation in my household. Thanks for sharing with all of us.

Love how this recipe simplifies weeknight dinners! Using chicken thighs for juiciness is such a smart tip—I’ve found they hold up better in creamy sauces too. For anyone looking for easy Paleo meals, the Creamy Tuscan Chicken recipe is definitely a keeper.
Love how this recipe nails convenience and flavor! Using boneless, skinless thighs really does make a difference in juiciness, and the creamy coconut-based sauce is a fantastic dairy-free alternative. Your tips on adjusting the coconut milk taste are super helpful for anyone sensitive to it—looking forward to trying the Creamy Tuscan Chicken soon!

This sounds amazing! I love that it’s a one-skillet meal, perfect for busy weeknights. Your tip about using chicken thighs over breasts for juiciness and flavor is spot on – I often struggle with dry chicken. Can’t wait to try this Paleo, Whole30, and Keto-friendly recipe!
